"Really cute place. My GPS took me to a blue house next to it but they came out to get me to the right place. They really need a sign. The pool is actually at another place across the street but because of a really heavy rain storm, I did not use it. Great, secure parking but let them know if you need to leave early. The place was clean and a great vibe. The people were so nice. Higly recommend and will be back when in that area."

"It' a very nice and quiet place with well furnished tents (the bed is very comfortable!). The kitchen is well stocked and clean, so are the bathrooms and showers (hot water is working well). The staff is very friendly and helpful! I was supposed to stay two nights, but ended up booking three more, as i really enjoyed it. I would recomend this place for anyone that likes nature but still wants to be close to the town, or if you just want to relax, wind down and rest up."
