Very nice location. Local bears come to visit as well as raccoons, squirrels, and a cat. Very quiet and up in the mountain. In the middle between Gburg and PForge. Trash cans are really small if you have a large group. It takes a little bit for a response, but it's still not bad. Overall, we loved this property!
