Crane hunt Camp
We stayed her to come hunt Sandhill Cranes a couple days. Conveniently located, it’s 7 minutes to a Dollar General, on a dead end road in a nice farm neighborhood, and located on the Colorado River. The home is older but has been updated, has an open floor plan. There is a plenty of shaded areas and a nice BBQ pit to use. The only thing that I could think of that would have made the stay more enjoyable is a small fire pit to sit by as you stare at the setting sun acrooss the river.

Roomie
We enjoyed our stay. I would suggest putting some pots and pans to cook with in there. Also, maybe extra blankets and pillows. Also, would have been nice to have a path down to water. Overall served its purpose!! Thank yall
