Paradise in the woods!!

The lodge is located in the forest! We enjoyed the trail right next to the highway that is easy and meanders through the woods! The breakfast is more than a continental one with hot eggs potatoes and sausage. My room was upstairs with sumptuous king bed but no TV. My other party had our dog in a pet friendly room with two queens. His room had jacuzzi tub; mine just had shower. Overall great property!!

We booked the top floor because it has that attic, Harry Potter feeling. OMG! It is the best hotel we have ever stayed in. The room is so beautiful. We felt like we were living in Harry Potter's house, minus where Harry really lived in. Our only wish is that we can live in a place like this permanently. Our kids loved it. It really has that Precious Moments cottage feeling. For me, it really reminded me of the hostel we stayed in Frankfurt, Germany and Britain. The couple that are engaged and working there, are so friendly and welcoming. We will never forget their kind hospitality. We'll be back here.

Baby getaway

My wife and I needed a small getaway so we decided on harmony. When we arrived with my 3 month old daughter we were met by the host and her cute dog Milo they were very nice and she gave us the info we needed for our cabin. He loved seeing our baby. We really enjoyed our stay and my daughter loved the tall trees and bird noises we loved taking her around the grounds and had a restful great night. We will be back for Father’s Day hopefully

There was everything to love about the property. We stayed during the week. It was SO peaceful. The grounds are beautiful, stunning! Many areas throughout the property to sit and relax, both inside and outside. The breakfast in the morning was freshly made and very tasty! A nice frittata, one veggie and one with meat, plus fresh fruit, quite yummy! There were only 4 of us, but they had conversation pits that could easily accommodate 8-12 people. The staff was so friendly and showed us everything. The room was large and well-appointed. We walked down to the only close restaurant and had dinner. The market closes at 8 pm If you need anything . We were there at the end of June 2025. The lake is only 0.3 miles away but we didn't go as we were here for only 1 day. We won't make that mistake again!
