Great visit

It exceeded our expectations, and we wished we could have stayed longer. Our group of 2 families with teens enjoyed roasting s’mores on the campfire, sitting on the porch watching deer early in the morning, and just relaxing on the couch with the big tv. The leaves were beautiful! Hope to visit again!

Weekend in the mountains.

The property was nicer than we expected. It was very clean and tucked away at the bottom of a Christmas tree farm. We watched deer from the front porch. The house had plenty of room and the beds were very comfortable. We definitely plan to come back next year..
