Summary: This place is paradise! The rolling meadows, the beautiful house with wrap around decks, the lake…..and the peace and quiet. We got a lot of reading done and our dogs ran and ran. The town of Griffin was like going back in time and the restaurants were really good and amazingly affordable. We plan to come back and we can’t wait to be there again. Thank you so much for sharing this gem.
