Great Cabin for Truck Fest!

The property and cabin were great! There was plenty of space inside with great amenities. The property itself is relaxing and secluded. We booked the site for Fitzgerald Performance Truck Fest, and it is only 15-20 minutes from the venue in town. I definitely recommend this spot.
