This was an exceptional stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. It was perfect for 6 women seeking a great time of fellowship. The views were wonderful, the furniture comfortable and close by to Blue Sky Vineyard. Great communication with the owner who was very helpful. Would definitely recommend and hope to return.
