"This place is FABULOUS! We used it for a high school retreat for our church group. Tons of great space for rec, prayer trails and hikes, cabins were decent, plenty of hot water. The managers are fantastic and I loved the 9-square game and horseshoes. Plenty of parking, easy to get to, close to stores you might need stuff from but you feel really tucked away. The kids had a blast! Great full kitchen and mess hall, deer and bobcats to be seen! Great amphitheater with a tech booth, perfect for our morning worship and evening times. I highly recommend!"
