Summary: Overall very happy with the stay and experience. My only complaint is it is posted fly fishing only on the property, which was not very clear in the online description. We like to fish with spinner rods and lures on occasion, which once we got there we learned was not allowed. You can still walk up the canyon and fish public areas so it wasn’t a huge deal.
