River House in July

A family trip to visit my daughter's family who own cabins nearby. 5 teen grandkids, daughter, son-in-law and 3 girls. My husband and 2 extra grand sons. A great cousins holiday. We enjoyed Maidstone Lake, downhill cycling, the movie theater, (it was raining 1 afternoon. Can't beat a 6 movie!) and Bruno's maple bacon pizza!
Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025
