“…a beautiful, quiet retreat…”
We keep a journal in each of our cabins for our guests to share their thoughts, artwork, advice to other guests, etc. Here is a recent journal entry from Jeanmarie & Harry of Cary, NC
“What a beautiful, quiet retreat. We loved the cabin, beginning with Mark’s kind welcome. Seeing 2 deer in the wooded area right next to our cabin was awesome, and they even waited for us to take some pictures! We liked the swing & the screened porch. We wanted to see the waterfalls and we visited a lot of beautiful ones. We took a tour with Miller’s Land of Waterfall Tours and it was great–he planned the tour to our “senior status” and we loved it. Having fresh trout several times was a treat.
Steven and Mark, you’ve made Ash Grove a perfect blend with the wonders of nature. Thanks for a great bit of R & R.”
Here is another one from some of our regulars, Billy, Michelle & Family, Murfreesboro, TN
“Mark & Steven,
Well, Guys, another trip & as usual it ended all too soon. I think I speak for the entire family in saying that our world is a better place now that we know you guys are here. Thank you for being such wonderful hosts & sharing all that you have here at Ash Grove with us & and all that stay here. We wish you guys health, wealth & happiness. Until next time!”
We have well over 1,000 of these writings, so we will be sharing them on a regular basis.
