We had an amazing time at this beautiful place! The place was wonderful and super cozy. The views are just gorgeous. We are astrophotographers and the sky was exceptional here. No lights to bother us at all. A great place to stay when getting married in Marathon for sure!

When booking, the option wasn't available to buy insurance in case we couldn't make it and a cleaning fee was added with no option, so the price that says all fees included really isn't all fees included.

It was an awesome place to stay off the beaten path. Loved Sitting on the porch early morning watching the Sunrise & the wildlife. Truly God’s masterpiece It was great to come back to our roots in west Texas where I grew up to relax & spend time with our local family. Marathon is small but mighty. We love coming out here every year for our cousin get together at Thanksgiving Great hostess!!
