Great stay for a girls weekend

Booked here for a girls weekend. Location was just beautiful, nature all around. We even had a wallaby who kept coming up to the house to say hello. Great spa, sauna. Plenty of firewood make lighting the indoor fire and outdoor firepit easy. Its not as close to the main street but when you are there you don't want to leave.
