Three bedroom was perfect for the 5 of us. Just enough space for us. Bathroom tight and a step up to it was a bit weird. Not much in town but great access to local trails, which is what we came for.

Peaceful Getaway

This ranch is a wonderful place to go for a getaway. The property is so beautiful and is very peaceful. There are no TV's in the rooms which is fine. It was nice to just relax, go for a walk and enjoy conversing with one another. We also had a nice dinner at an Italian restaurant close by.

An oasis of an interesting and expansive restored historic property. While our original room choice was unavailable at check-in due to unfortunate hail damage the previous night, the manager was so friendly and accommodating in letting us move to a unit more to our liking on night 2. A wonderful stay and I wish I had realized I had a friend that lives directly adjacent to the property.
