Great Location and Amenities

Enjoyed our stay at this location. The weather was uncharacteristically bad for the time of year but thankfully the pool was nicely heated so kids swam each day! Also kayaked and paddle boarded with affordable rentals on-site!

Cozy family friendly resort

Our family of 5 loved the space in the 3 story cabin. Very comfortable stay. Well stocked with “extras”. Appreciated having some condiments in the fridge and a kind welcome gift - who doesn’t love wine and chocolate!The resort had many amenities that we enjoyed - pool, hot tub, fireplace with roasting sticks. We will definitely considering staying again!

Our family of four plus two grandparents had a wonderful stay at Janet’s place. Everything was exactly as described, the place was well stocked and the resort itself is amazing. We also lucked out with beautiful weather. Yes, the unit is up a slight hill, but nice to have the privacy and gorgeous views! Plus after eating and drinking and eating it’s nice to get a little exercise in;)
