The place is beautiful, we loved it. It was like living on the farm, the cottages were cute and spacious. Something to do for everyone. The animals were a magical touch, the memories we made and we will carry with us from this is a treasure itself.

Our week here was like summer camp for 3 generations! We had 12 people between 2 buildings and we all enjoyed our stay. We all loved the animals and the kids were thrilled to be able to pet them even the turkey! The location was perfect for our excursions to the water park, a safari and kayaking. Shawna our host was very responsive and friendly. We would stay here again.
