Weekend Trip to Oak Grove Retreat
Kevin was such a great host — the tent was great, comfy bedding, beautiful property, fabulous nature trail.
Kevin even set us up a fire after our return from a great dinner in Tarboro. It was a beautiful, clear night and the stars and moon were breathtaking.
Just can’t say enough — we’ll definitely be visiting again!!
Thanks so much!!
