Family Christmas

This place was amazing! We had our family Christmas there and our family had a blast! Kids had plenty to do with outdoor activities. Everything was clean and went beyond our expectations. Rebecca was great as she went above and beyond as we left a suitcase behind. We will definitely be back

Wonderful Stay!

Our GoGirls Retreat of 4 women wanted a large home to keep social distance and have our own bedroom and bath. This home was perfect! We had lots of room to enjoy and activity outside. We were very blessed to be able to stay here. Thank you so very much! Memories were made here we will cherish forever!
