Best, Cathy Buncher
Booked it for a 3 day weekend girls trip and fell in LOVE. The upstairs and downstairs having full kitchens/living spaces makes it perfect for families to vacation together while also having some space which is all we could talk about doing in the future. For our girls trip it was peaceful, beautiful, and exactly what our mom group needed to relax. I can’t wait to come back someday. Also, we did the float trip and it was so nice to end it at the property - I will also note that in the 7 miles we floated, this property had access to the BEST river bank we came across. Really this property is perfect for any trip you could ever plan on taking - I highly recommend staying here!

The home was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed and more! The layout was perfect for our large group and everyone had space to spread out. The beach was absolutely beautiful and everything was so private! We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our book club girls weekend. We hope to make it an annual trip! Thanks so much!

Dear Dana,
Thank you for your kind review. We appreciate having had the opportunity to accommodate you and your family for a second visit. I enjoyed reading your note in our guestbook. It seems singing and playing guitar around the fire pit was enjoyed by all. Congratulations on the two new little family members!
Thank you and I hope to accommodate you again!
