Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Close to Frog Creek Lodge!
We had friends getting married at the frog cteek lodge and it was only 8 minutes away from the venue and it was really nice to have the option to pop back and forth! The area is lovely and the property was very clean and organized. Lovely place! If given the opportunity, we would come back to this location.
