It felt like camping in style without the need for an RV. A bit breezy outside, but not so windy that we couldn't enjoy a nice campfire (glad we remembered to bring wood, paper, and kindling) before heading inside where it was comfortable and quiet. The full-sized bed was a little small for two larger adults (who are used to a king) to sleep soundly. However, the additional reclining chair allowed us to take some restful (but separate) day naps after a long hike at Crab Tree Falls, which is only a few miles away. We couldn't quite figure out how to use the phone as it has been ages since we've had to make a collect call from a land line (we forgot how to do it and an operator didn't answer, so we couldn't figure out how to make a call). It was nice to be away from it all (which is what we wanted) but honestly a bit unsettling to not have instant access to the Internet with our cell phones. We laughed about that a few times when we thought to Google some things, such as how to make a collect call. The friendly neighbor/property owner is not too close nor too far away, and the road back to civilization is in good shape -- so it's not a big deal. Overall, it was very nice and we would return again with the kids who would surely enjoy the beds in the loft. It was great!
