What a lovely spot! It was very private and it was kept very clean with fresh mowed lawns too. There was firewood already there and instructions were very clear. We will definitely be back!

It was in their front yard but they kept their space and was far enough away we could still play music. The shed was cool too, lots of games and stuff to do. Would recommend.
