Family adventure
We enjoyed the space and how close it was to the State Park. Our kids had room to roam and try to catch some fish in the pond. No luck though. Great place to stay for a larger group or a family who wants space and privacy.

Diamond Dig 2025
Shady Pines will offer you a clean, quiet, and relaxing home to stay when you are in need of a place to rest up. We stayed for three nights while we were in town to dig for diamonds. We were four adults and Shady Pines provided us all with plenty of space to relax and enjoy our time together. Having the washer and dryer was a big plus so we could wash our clothes after a day of digging. The value for what Shady Pines offers is great! I recommend Shady Pines for the reasons noted above, plus the host was always available when needed.

Close, quiet, relaxing and beautiful
Close enough to the COD to be convenient, far enough away to be quiet. The pond was beautiful and fun to fish. Plenty of "little things" make this place special. Condiments abound, they have a good selection of hand tools to borrow for use at the crater. We'd stay here again for sure!
