TYPICAL GUEST COMMENT:
The band barracks was a perfect location for our family gathering. The large open common spaces were comfortable for both adults and children. We were able to prepare a turkey dinner for 18 in the kitchen. We all enjoyed the gas fireplaces on the rainy day of our visit and the close proximity of the Battlefield Park on the good-weather days. We filled the house with music and imagined what it must have been like when the band lived here. This is a grand old house that is welcoming to young and old alike. - Ensign Family Holiday |
