We appreciated the personal touches, and it was so quiet and relaxing. The entry process was smooth and easy. We visited serenity alpaca farm and the emerald hollow mine. Unfortunately yellow deli is closed on Saturdays because I has also wanted to try it. It was a fun whirlwind weekend and the kids really came out of their shells.

We wanted to visit Emerald Hollow Mine. I took a chance and stayed at this lovely property instead of staying in a hotel. It was an excellent decision! The house literally has everything you could ever want ready and available for your stay. The beds are so comfy with plenty of pillows to choose from. My daughter and I felt safe and absolutely loved the privacy. The house is cute and I personally felt at home. Check in was simple. There are great restaurants within simple driving distance and even a nice grocery store to pick up supplies. I personally enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the cows graze. I highly recommended this property if you are needing to stay in this area. ##### Heather O.
