My husband & I rented this for our yearly getaway with our kids and grandbabies. it was comfortable and clean. We saw turkeys and deer in the yard daily. It was very private and we had a wonderful time.

This was a great place to accommodate our family of 10! Close to the Buffalo and plenty of space at the house to play outside.
