Loved the privacy without being completely remote. Fireplace was a great touch as well as the outdoor fire pit. Furniture was comfy and bathrooms were clean. Some toiletries were provided. The dam at the end of the long driveway was beautiful with cool trails and views from the top. My boys loved collecting firewood and kindling. We will definitely book again next time we are in the area.
