Grandson’s Christmas present done at spring break!

We had a great time. The house was super clean! Even the windows and there were a lot of them. The grandsons had fun with darts, pickle ball, the hot tub and kayaking. Beautiful view of the river. Lots of stars and even some lightning bugs. The host was fantastic!

Perfect

My children and I decided to get away for the week to spread my husband’s ashes. He loved Spanish moss, so we knew that the area would be perfect for him. The house we stayed out was amazing. It was beautiful and had everything we could need. I have zero complaints. We went into Jefferson one day for lunch, explored the state park and kayaked for hours. We will definitely be back.
