Fantastic Family Gathering

We had our entire family gather here for a long 4 day weekend - 12 adults, 4 kiddos and 1 infant!There was more than enough sleeping space and the 2 separate casitas were great for those that wanted a little more seclusion! The property is beautiful and very rustic and our kiddos had a blast! We floated the river 2 days and got to all go and watch Pawpaw play in a Sr Softball tournament! We cooked all of our meals together and had everything we needed!Fun family memories that will last a lifetime!! We would highly recommend this property for large groups and multiple families wanting to gather together in one fun place!
