Family Reunion

Our stay was remarkable! We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the cabin and all that it and the surroundings had to offer. We enjoyed the hot tub, large grassy area for yard games, the fire pit for smores and the trails for hiking and biking. The kitchen was well stocked and the large wrap around deck provided great space for coffee in the morning to enjoy the breathtaking views!

Great property for my grandchildren ages 5 to11. Played in shallow creek, watched the horses close by, played kickball, smores by the fire, foosball and board games. My 5 year old granddaughter loved drawing on the white board. Many activities close by also. We had perfect weather for all the fun.
