What a cute and quite place. It has recently been updated and super charming. If you ride atvs, side by side, love to hunt or fish or simply get away this is your place!!! Owner super nice made sure everything was up to par. Will definitely be back!!!!
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.
