Summary: It was a wonderful relaxing stay. We enjoyed biking the GAP Trail and came back to a comfy setting to relax! We enjoyed the fire pit, watched birds from the deck, and used the grill to make steaks. We watched a couple of movies, and slept well. Everything was as described and very clean! Mona and Bryon were kind and responsive eith anything we asked. We hope to return soon!
