beautiful and peaceful
Great little get away just outside of town. Very quiet and the neighbors were really nice. Everyone went above and beyond so that we could get the most out of this trip. We wanted to get away from the 4th of July Fireworks. Great for smaller groups, highly recommend! Thank you!
