Time to get away from the hustle and bustle
What a great weekend. The property was set up as the center home was the lodge and there were 2 super clean cabins on either side. There were walkways to the center home/lodge with beautiful landscaping and many places to sit and relax, enjoy the hammocks, decks off the water...etc. Kathryn and Ron were the absolute best host and hostess we have encountered on our travels. If you are looking for a relaxing time this is the place. Ron took us out on his Carolina skiff and showed us around all the swampy areas and hidden lakes, he was an excellent tour guild. We also canoed and enjoyed the sandy beaches along the way. Kathryn prepared an excellent breakfast for us every morning and we had bon fires in the evenings. We will be back later on in the year.

Fabulous Getaway Weekend !!
Karthyn and Ron were the absolute best!!! They were so welcoming and accommodating. They served a very delicious breakfast every morning. We plan on returning in the fall, so we can use the fireplace. We had a wonderful time and made new friends. Lisa and Wayne Hughes
