Gardner Getaway is a beautiful, well cared for cabin set amongst the pines. In the quaint little village of Duck Creek. This is the second time we have stayed there. The first time we went with all of our children, their spouses and grandchildren. This time we went with our 7 siblings and their spouses. The trips were at the same place, but so completely different! The kids played in the beautiful lakes and streams and were outside playing games, horseshoes and riding our Razor. The Lava Tubes were exciting and fun, Cascade Falls was pictures and the walk/hike was amazing with gorgeous panoramic views. Lots of OHV trails. With our older siblings, the cabin became a place of rest, with lots of time to chat and share childhood memories and laughter. We did tour the area and see the sites, but not with the same energetic enthusiasm. The cabin met both our needs beautifully. The beds and pillows were good. And it really is so well decorated, but not over the top. It allowed us to feel at home, but not in somebody else’s home. We felt peace. There is so much to do in the area, but its also a place to relax and enjoy each other. The kitchen and serving area is huge! The pantry is HUGE! Many shelves and even floor space for storing boxes of food. Nice big quality griddle and plenty of other pots, pans, cooking implements and tools. We had an amazing time,, both times.
