“We just had the most amazing weekend! We made a very last minute decision to get away for a couple of nights. We live in the next town over, yet it felt like we had escaped to somewhere far, far away. Everything was absolutely perfect!
From the hug that greeted me to the beautifully appointed tent to the fire pit, the kayaks, the seclusion - everything was absolutely perfect! Don’t hesitate to book a stay here!”' -Leslie Mansell
