Great property for my grandchildren ages 5 to11. Played in shallow creek, watched the horses close by, played kickball, smores by the fire, foosball and board games. My 5 year old granddaughter loved drawing on the white board. Many activities close by also. We had perfect weather for all the fun.

Family Reunion

Our stay was remarkable! We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the cabin and all that it and the surroundings had to offer. We enjoyed the hot tub, large grassy area for yard games, the fire pit for smores and the trails for hiking and biking. The kitchen was well stocked and the large wrap around deck provided great space for coffee in the morning to enjoy the breathtaking views!

UTV Trip

We had a wonderful trip! The cabin was perfect for all 13 of us. Plenty of parking for our trucks, trailers and UTVs. Great location to ride north or south on the trails. We did have a couple issues, but Matthew was very helpful with a quick reply. We will definitely be back again!
