Testimonials

This is our 7th time here! We always have more and more fun each year. We went on the paddle boats, walked on the trail, went fishing, relaxed, played on the playground, caught frogs and sat by the fire at night.
~ Jenny, age 13

What a lovely week we had. We enjoyed the sights and sounds of nature. We saw deer, squirrels, rabbits, frogs, a turtle and many different kinds of birds. It’s nice to get away from it all for awhile.
~ Columbus, Ohio

Had a great time fishing, hiking and boating. Tango was a very nice dog. He listens well and is playful.
