Fabulous weekend getaway

We recently stayed at Montain Manor over the weekend and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The standout feature of this property is definitely the amazing views it offers. Waking up to such a picturesque setting was truly refreshing. The outdoor trampoline was a hit with the kids—they had a blast jumping around and burning off some energy. However, one issue we encountered was the insufficient supply of hot water in the showers. This was a bit inconvenient, especially for a few families, as we had to coordinate shower times. Despite this drawback, we are considering another visit because the positives outweighed the negatives. If the hot water issue can be resolved, this place would be perfect for a relaxing getaway. Overall, it was an amazingly relaxed stay and we look forward to returning.
