It was a great location. The host and people that were visiting were very friendly inviting and the atmosphere was spot on beautiful scenery, as well as peaceful and quaint.

The river seam to be full of a muck that had the appearance of guts. The ground around my campsite was covered in geese droppings. I mentioned this to the grounds people, but they didn’t do anything to clean it up.
