enjoyed stay

We enjoyed the stay, but left a day early because a very bad storm was predicted. No basement or storm shelter listed, no garage for car. Hope to come again next year for planning ministry retreat. Everything was great. Loved the homey atmosphere.

Respite for Family

Difficult family situation/hospitalization brought us here. Plenty of room for us to feel comfortable and to have some "space" during difficult time. Easy commute to St. Joseph hospital. Phone/internet access area is lacking.
