Also had a 10 pt buck and his harem show up everyday. Many, many turkey and blue jay. Both grandmas, my 10 and 5 year old sons, and my wife made the trip. The boys were blown away with the wildlife and got on skis for the first time. We’ll remember this trip forever and give many thanks!!" – Handly
