Woods away from the world. Our family gets together from 5 different states every year and we have to find a place capable of housing up to 50 people from ages 1-82. This property had more than enough space. Our only issue was distance from one house to another. We needed vehicles in the evening to get from e cabin to the other in the dark. The amenities of the cabins were terrific. Nice finishes and very comfortable. Love the outdoor showers at some of the houses. Treehouse and Trout house were especially nice. Hemlock had a super nice jacuzzi tub. We loved playing whiffle ball and soccer in the backyard area of Chestnut. Do bring bug spray as the mosquitoes and gnats are a bit of a problem.

First and foremost, saying the cabins are air conditioned is not true, the only cabin with central air is Chestnut. The Barn had NO a/c, and the beds are upstairs, so those family members were a bit uncomfortable. Homestead and Hemlock had window a/c units in the bedrooms only. The rest of the cabin did not, and there were no ceiling fans to help move the air, only small portable fans. Secondly, the retreat is LOVELY. The trails and streams are SO beautiful, though we never found swimming holes, and the maintenance guys told us there really weren't any swimming holes when we asked them. We didn't mind much, as just listening to the constant sounds of the bubbling streams chilled us all out. The scenery really cannot be beat. The seclusion of the retreat was also great. The cabins are lovely, VERY clean and well appointed, with very nice beds and linens. The kitchens have most everything you need except the food. Our ONLY disappointment was the lack of central A/C in all cabins except Chestnut. The hosts were great communicators, and answered any questions quickly. We would have given a 5 star rating had it not be for the A/C.

Me and my husband rented the entire property for our wedding this past weekend. Everything about the property was wonderful. Chelsea, Hunter, and the grounds keeper Frank went above and beyond to make sure our special weekend with friends and family went as smooth as possible. The cabins are absolutely beautiful with every amenity needed in the middle of the woods. We couldn't thank them enough for everything during our time there. We can't wait to come back and enjoy more of the trails and hiking.
