Great for family
We travel to the Mount Vernon area every few months and this was by far the best location we have ever stayed! Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Enjoyed having bonfires! Would have liked a map of the trails and approximate lengths. Owner was very responsive to questions! We will definitely try to stay here again in future trips!
