A great little spot
We enjoyed our stay here. Great location, the back unit is restful looking out on bush. Some noise between units but not too bad. Everything we needed.

Excellent for family groups
We stayed in the rear house, but were with a group in the front house, and the setup was great - opened up into one big house. Clean and tidy, awesome location, and lots of firewood. Might try a summer trip next time. Some extra blankets and warm sheets for winter would be nice (or bring a few extras yourself for the chilly months).
