My husband and I stayed here a week for New Year's with our dog and it was absolutely perfect! The fenced yard was so nice for our dog and the hot tub was wonderful! The state patk is so close and we hiked everyday. One of the best stocked places we have ever stayed at! Comfy beds and couches and excellent communication from start to finish. Highly recommend!
