We loved our stay, the home, room, everything was beautiful. The tips from the owner of what to do in the park were perfect. Breakfasts were wonderful! Our only comment for improvement was that the bed in our room, Strawberry Hill was old and very squeaky. It probably needs to be replaced. Other than that a fantastic stay!
