The site. It’s quite, but full of life, fish jumping, cows mooing and coyotes howling. It’s peaceful and remote!

Absolutely loved it! It was clean & quiet, with plenty of places to walk/explore. Samantha and everyone were very friendly and helpful. The horses were very friendly. The sunsets over the water are gorgeous. It’s a dark place, but I went on a full moon. It was beautiful. Overall, a great place for a relaxing getaway..
