Get away from it all

10/10 Excellent

"This property was exactly what we hoped for and more!! For a couple animal lovers like me and my son, the bonus of the dogs, cats, goats, chickens and ducks was amazing. Unfortunately it rained a lot of our visit so we didn’t get to utilize the backyard and creek hangout spaces but the coziness of the well-appointed cabin more than made up for any weather. My only regret was my wife and daughter not being able to enjoy this beautiful property. Cleve and Jessie were very friendly as was their nephew and Jesse’s mom who we had the opportunity to meet. I thought this property overall was one of the best values for the cost. Highly recommend!!!"
