10/10 Excellent
"This was definitely the highlight of our vacation. We were very fortunate to have found this little slice of heaven on such short notice. I booked less then 24 prior to arriving. The cabins are very clean and truly rustic. No need for fancy schmancy here :) The host Kathleen introduced herself after hosting a private function on the property and made us feel very welcome. With talking to a few of the other guests who were also staying, they were very happy with their stays. Breakfast and coffee were served in the morning in the main cabin. Kathleen does all the cooking! She truly is a woman of all trades. The resident dog, cat and bird also made themselves present. If you are looking at using the Laughing Horse Lodge as your place to decompress and leave the hustle and bustle from where you are behind you, book now! You won't regret it."
