Very peaceful and quiet location. Large walkable property was lovely. Only issue was the bathroom fan wasn't working and it became very stuffy and hot in the bathroom after showering.

The room we stayed was very dark, inadequate lighting and a damp smell. Placing a chair in the room might be helpful. It seemed pricey in terms of amenities were offered. But the outside view was gorgeous and the front desk lady was very friendly and respectful

Oasis de tranquillité, hôtes accueillants

Les hôtes comprenaient nos besoins et ont grandement facilité notre séjour. Leur grand terrain longe la rivière, ils y ont aménagé des gazebos et un 'sundeck'.

On our dream vacation.

Coming in the entrance to the grounds were very nicely kept. LISA was very helpful and friendly. The remodelled room was awesome. The bed was comfortable and so were the pillows. It would be a perfect place for a family reunion. Lots of room.

Tranquillité des lieux. Il y avait aussi la possibilité de trouver un coin non éclairé et sans pollution lumineuse de sorte qu'il était possible de bien voir la voie lactée.

Breakfast on site would be convenient. Having other guests sitting on the porch in front of our unit was a bit uncomfortable. Facilities themselves were fine.
