The property was so picturesque on top of the hill looking out to the mountains and lake. At night, we could enjoy the beautiful stars. Michelle & Peter were great hosts. Breakfast was delicious, and we got a tour of their farm. Their 3 dogs were wonderful and friendly. The facilities were clean and comfortable.
