Liked: Lynn (did I get the spelling right?) was lovely and super helpful; the site was small but it's clear she cares about it deeply and wants it to be a place where people can come and enjoy nature and peace, from the local community as well as people travelling in. We had a perfect night despite the weather and can't wait to come back soon and see what she's done with the place next, it's only going to get better as more amenities get added!
