Plenty of Space for Everyone
My family and I really enjoyed this stay. What struck me was how much room we had for everything. We hiked around the area, explored the creeks, and felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. I guess we did. The rec center was about twice as big as I expected with plenty to do. We had our kids 10 & 12 years old with us, this place was right up their alley. The creeks were full of really interesting rocks as well, but I'm not enough of a rockhounder to comment.

Cliff side Hideaway
The rooms were spacious and the main room was perfect for our group to gather to eat and relax. The property was fun to explore and we enjoyed the recreation center and pool. Perfect way to cool off from the heat. The owner was very friendly and accommodating.
