I cannot say enough good things about this property. It is large (6 bedrooms; each with bathroom)...Kitchen is so well appointed (2 refrigerators + a bar refrig on lower level) makes meal prep a delight....the property has several hiking trails, one to an amazing beaver pond.

Here for an annual heavenly birthday celebration. Great accommodations, very well equipped kitchen and attention to detail around every corner. Although the weather was uncooperative and we were unable to enjoy the outdoors, the indoor offerings more than made up for it. No unexpected surprises, everything was as described. Will definitely be back.
