We enjoyed our stay at Owls Nest. The home was full of amenities. We were greated with a welcome gift of snacks and beverages. Hot tub was hot beds were comfy. Gas stove gave us not only convenient heat but also a great ambiance. The view was fantastic. We spent most of the weekend just looking at the water and watching deer run through the yard. Great experience, Excellent host!
