Great place to stay, house layout was perfect for us. What we couldn’t see with past reviews or pictures is that one side has a larger bedroom and basically an on-suite so the primary guest can be isolated from the main house where the other 2 bedrooms are. Master bed was very comfortable, Connie and Dean were great hosts, we had everything we needed and if we needed something else they were there quickly.

Weekend in St Helen

We had an excellent stay. They had everything we needed for our weekend. It was close to the trails like we hoped. We were also happy to find the board games since it rained the majority of our stay. I hope to book it again in the near future.

Had a great time at the house! It was clean, spacious & very close to the boat launch. Would recommend a taller light in the kitchen though (too many headbutts:) Thanks for the awesome stay! Lee
