Summary: 13 of us all had a bed and space to be inside and outside at this picturesque location with lots to do including kayaking, swimming, so many photo opportunities as well as easy access to all the area had to offer. Easy to find. So many cleaning products covered all that was needed. Kitchen was a bit small but we managed. One toilet, but ones next door to playground if needed. Kids had a ball. The experience has provided a lot of memories .
