If you just want a simple cozy place to gather with friends and enjoy a hot tub outdoors, this is the spot for you. The price is very reasonable and appropriate for what you are getting. No frills but everything you need is available and the hosts are very helpful and gracious. Very short drive to the beautiful surrounding areas and easy to find the property. ##### Aleks W.
