ROAD CONDITION: **The 1/4 mile drive in from the main road is not paved and is bumpy through a meadow (to some, it’s a breeze, but to those who have never driven off road may find the 1/4 mile drive in rough (all up to the driver's interpretation.) We have seen a GT Mustang go through no problem, and a Subaru pulling a pop-up, just note the road is not paved and is not a road - but more like a man-made path created for this primitive access.
