A Hidden Gem

The property was an absolute blast to stay at. We attended to celebrate my wedding and I had a group of groomsmen and my Wife stay with me. It housed all 8 of us with ease, with room for more. Though I will say if you are looking to stay here with couples, it may not be ideal given the sizes of beds. The amenities were amazing, whether needing an EV charging station, a hot tub for late night relaxation, or a cozy piano corner to enjoy some calm melodies, you will have a fantastic stay with plenty of things to do. I would come to stay again if given the chance and I can’t wait to see their finished Dock being constructed.

About the host

Hosted by Ches Weeks

My wife and I are actually from Smithfield! We have poured our love into creating a one-of-a-kind serene space where you can reconnect with family/friends and recharge! We can tell you all of the best places to eat and shop as experienced Smithfieldians!

Why they chose this property

This location is gorgeous and serene. It is a destination in and of it's self. You can take a quiet stroll through the woods or reflect and do yoga down at the river's edge. You can enjoy a dip in the hot tub and not worry about any visitors other than maybe a visit from our two outdoor kittens Onyx and Sweet Pea!
