We had a really great time at Shimmering Cove. Its a nice home with a great kitchen and amenities. We loved using the kayaks and the hot-tubs. Its close to some good hikes too. A perfect weekend getaway, even in April, when spring is still arriving.

Little family getaway

We loved our stay! The views are magnificent, the fishing was top notch and the hot tub was a hit. The stairs were worth the pain and we felt like we earned every cookie that we devoured. This is a wonderful place to recharge and get away.
