Peaceful off-the-grid getaway with stunning views. We had a wonderful stay. The views of the wetlands were absolutely beautiful, especially at sunset - truly a peaceful and serene setting. We loved being able to explore the wetlands right on the property. And it was a perfect spot for both our kids and our dog to enjoy nature safely. The host was fantastic- great communication and very easy to work with. We felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout our stay.
