Weekend Trip to Bucca Country River Retreat

What a lovely little cabin on this beautiful property! Sarah's place was well appointed with the finer fittings making the whole stay feel quite homely. Was the perfect place to watch the sunset from the deck, overlooking the river whilst having a bbq. The large firepit was a great place to see out the night. The whole camp grounds were very well kept. We can't recommend Sarah's cabin or camp grounds enough. 5 stars. We will be back.
