reminds me of the many hunting and fishing lodges we have stayed in

Very nice well equipped large home for the family to enjoy which reminds me of the many hunting and fishing lodges that we have stayed in. Great communication with the bachcare manager who turned up to meet us and show us around. The family are wanting to make plans to come back for a longer stay.
