It sits in an oasis of greenery that is absolutely breathtaking. We were a group of 8 who had more than enough space to enjoy and relax in nature. Curt operates his home in a true bed and breakfast fashion, amazing breakfast was prepared for us every morning as well as our beds being made. Laundry was also included! We opted to have a catered dinner as well which turned out to be one of the best decisions. Curt and his team go above and beyond to ensure the perfect vacation. Can’t wait to go back !! ##### Andy V. Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ---
