Weekend getaway
Billabong Moon - Sunset Ridge Cottage was a beautiful place to stay. Our puppy Barry loved running around outside enjoying the green grass! The place had everything we needed and very clean. Unfortunately our trip ended with car issues due to mice chewing on the electrical parts in our engine!
