We had a quick one night stay, but this place was all we could ask for. The host is top notch and very easy to work with. We had a truck and trailer, and she went above and beyond to make sure we had a spot to park to avoid any issues. Will definitely stay here again when we get the chance.

It was a nice roomy place. Only problems were the bad smell of the water in the showers and the fire being so close to the property. Other then that it was a good.
