Great Weekend

Was a great property. Kitchen was great and functional. Had everything we needed. Having the girl made cooking super easy. Kayaks were used each day for fishing adventures. Loved having laundry on site. Fire pit was perfect end to the weekend. We have some great memories to share for years to come!
