We were a group of 5 women on a girls' weekend to ride the Dogwood Lunch Train. The cottages were pristine in condition and peaceful as the day is long. We sat outside and chatted the evening away. The decor was wonderful! We all thought up reasons to return to this lovely spot.

Really are a Hidden Gem

We booked both cabins while visiting family for new years and absolutely loved everything about our experience! Susan was so hopeful when I reached out with questions and very quick to respond. The boys loved fishing, the girls explored the property and the parents got to enjoy the fire pits and quiet seclusion. Both houses were equipped with everything we needed and can’t wait to book for our next family get together!

Hidden Gems! Hidden Treasure!

The lush grounds, the catfish pond, the beautifully furnished cottages surrounded by pines is really only secondary to the kindness and hospitality Carlos and Susan showed our bunch of family and friends (8 of us from 60-79 years old for a couple of birthdays). The adjustable beds, comfy living areas and vert well equipped kitchens added to our 3 night stay. Even when I messed up the arrival date, Susan fixed it easily. If you’ve ever met strangers who became instant friends, you know how good that makes you feel in this crazy universe! Thank you Susan and Carlos!!
