My wife and I celebrated our honeymoon by staying in the Kingfisher suite cabin, and the thought that first came to mind as we packed up to head out after almost a week was, "Man, I can't wait to come back."
The accommodations are very nice. I found everything you could need in the kitchen, plenty of room for a week's worth of grocery in the fridge, and a nice little table to enjoy your meals. The bed is gigantic, the bathroom was well stocked and I just found nothing to complain about inside the cabin. Not much of a TV guy, but there was one, and it was nice. I just don't really care about amenities at all, because I'm a dude. But my wife was extremely happy. What I care about are the outdoor aspects.
James let us have full use of the four-wheeler to go exploring the property and riding the trails. There's an awesome covered grill and picnic area where you can sit and drink beer while you grill your steaks. There's room under the cabins to hang out and drink beer, with a small fridge to keep a few extras in. There are chairs on the balcony as well, with small tables between them, where you can sit and look at the beautiful scenery and drink beer. But then, there's the Fire Pit. Yes, it should actually be capitalized in the brochure, because that's the best part to me. Right by the river, and with plenty of night sounds to make the scene perfect. We heard owls and coyotes along with the frogs and cicadas. Looking up at the stars and roasting s'mores and drinking beer while sitting around the fire - that's what I live for.
The best part of all this is the owner, James, and the grounds-keeper, 'Coach', who are always willing to sit out there and have a few beers with you and keep the fire going. We didn't get to hang out with Niki, but we expect she'll be around on our next visit. James and Coach are the two biggest reasons I have for wanting to make this place a frequent spot on my vacation calendar. They want you to feel completely relaxed and on vacation, and will stop at nothing to make sure that happens.
This, overall, was one of the most relaxing and best vacations of my life. And I can't wait to go back and hang out with the boys again. I just can't say enough good things about the place, the people and the hospitality. Completely overwhelming. Thank you, guys, for making this a memorable getaway for my new wife and me. We enjoyed your company and conversation very, very much. See you soon!
