We had a great stay. The property feels private for how close it is to the city, and we had everything we needed to hang out, cook meals, and enjoy ourselves.

Perfect weekend getaway
It was exactly what we hoped for - away from it all & restorative. A beautiful piece of property and would definitely go back again!

Family reunion
The canoe and giant fish were the best part. Swimming and fishing during the day and bonfires at night.
