This was an amazing property! The weather didn’t permit us to use it as much as we hoped, but the deck space on various levels has endless potential! We did not experience a winery…the review process forced us to rate it.

Cape Fear Getaway

We had a very nice time at the cabin! Large and plenty of room! The stairs were good exercise for our ol' bodies! The area was a beautiful location! Very peaceful! We enjoyed sitting down by the river and watching the occasional boats that would go by! We visited the wineries, and walked through the quaint town of Elizabethtown. A must lunch or dinner out is the San Jose Mexican restaurant!
