It rained every day of our stay so the screened in porch really made our trip worth it. Very relaxing and quiet. Plenty of space in the main cabin and the detached suite for our party of 9. The kids loved the loft and all had their own bed. Host was very informative and responsive. Fun rustic spring break trip!
