Had a great time visiting this winery! The names of the wine were great fun for an individual such as I employed in a legal profession! Sitting on the deck overlooking the bluffs and river drinking a refreshing Blushing testimony slushee was heavenly! The people conducting the wine tastings were friendly and helpful! Definitely recommend a stop here when you’re in town!!

My nephew had an awesome time playing with all of the items in each of the log cabins in the loggers camp. The water table is huge and lots of fun. There is a river rafting log transporting game that was also fun for kids and adults. We missed out on the train ride, guess they can only give rides when they have enough employees there.
