A Little Piece of Infinity Paradise Come escape to our rustic country retreat — a peaceful place where you can breathe fresh air, listen to the birds sing, and enjoy nature at its finest. Whether you love fishing, hiking through the trees, or simply relaxing outdoors, there’s something here for everyone. Many guests who arrive are truly amazed by the beauty of the house. They often say that photos don’t do it justice because the place is even more stunning in person. The property includes a main house and a cozy cabin, with a swimming pool nestled between them, right next to a small lake. If you book for 3 nights or more, the pool will be exclusively yours during your stay. The cabin can also be rented separately if you need additional space. One of the special features of the main house is a charming atrium inside, where you’ll find a beautiful tree, a relaxing fountain, and some tables perfect for sitting down in the morning to enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee surrounded by nature. Main House Layout: First Floor: There are two bedrooms with king-sized beds. One of these rooms also has a sofa bed. There's also a TV room with another sofa bed. Additionally, two folding beds are available on this floor. Second Floor: There is one bedroom with a queen-sized bed and a pop-up trundle bed (equivalent to two full-size beds). In the living room, there's another sofa bed. The house is set up to comfortably accommodate three couples, each with two children. There’s a gas barbecue grill and outdoor dining tables — perfect for a small family celebration or a quiet evening meal. Some of the most cherished moments at Infinity Paradise happen at night — sitting outside on the deck in the lakeside kiosk (kioske del lago), watching the stars light up the sky or enjoying the glow of a full moon reflected on the water. And in the early morning, nothing beats a peaceful walk while listening to the birds sing — a perfect way to start the day. We're located just outside the city limits, only 15 minutes from Walmart and other conveniences, so you're never far from anything you might need. The land is filled with trees and wildlife.

4 nights at Music Springs

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We absolutely loved Vicki and Mikes property! Everything was perfect, they were very quick to respond to anything we needed and Mike came down and gave us a quick tour of the amenities offered around the campground. We tent camped under the beautiful Pines but they also offer a really cute School House, a very neat Teepee, or a spacious Julias Cottage that you can reserve. The restrooms were clean and the decor was the coolest. The outdoor shower house was the best, with hot and cold water available and shampoos and conditioners available makes packing a little lighter. The campground was extremely clean and well maintained and the strung lights through the trees was a wonderful addition. We enjoyed the peace and quiet this campground offered and we are already planning another trip there very soon. Highly recommend. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Weekend Trip to Shiloh on the Lake

shiloh on the lake was great! good access to the lake, a couple of restaurants in the area (had a hard time finding celiac-friendly spots, but "the dock restaurant and bar" was great). there is no wifi though, and both of our phones had a hard time accessing anything that needed the internet without wifi.

We loved tent camping in Music Springs. The way the sunlight pours through the pines was so lovely. The space is kept beautifully and extra special with the bulb lights and well maintained grassy area. The hosts are so kind and accommodating. The bathrooms even have a little heater inside. Overall a peaceful little getaway for our family and we highly recommend this spot. Thanks!
