Our stay was great. Ann is a wonderful host who goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is great. Property is immaculate with good outdoor space and very well equipped.
Great place to stay! Super clean and filled with tons of games and activities. We stayed for a softball tournament and it was a 5 minute walk of the Albert Ray Massey park. Would recommend and would stay again. Thank you!
