We really enjoyed our stay at Canal Side Adventure Base. The place was very clean inside and well maintained, and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed , nice fireplace and great hospitality. The area is peaceful and quiet, with beautiful pine trails — the trailhead is about 2 miles away. Our dogs were very happy. A perfect spot for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway.
