My first hike that I completed alone from start to finish 4.4 miles. I really liked how peaceful it was with many trees.

Love this place!! However, it would be great if the firewood available for purchase was covered ♥️
We stayed for a weekend after it had rained, and unfortunately all of the wood was was wet & it was difficult to start a fire :/
