Anniversary Cabin

Rated 5.0 out of 5
April 1, 2024

We learned about Golden Anchor from a friend. We stayed for 3 days in August 2023. As soon as we walked in, we didn’t want to leave! Absolutely beautiful! We loved all the decor. It has everything you could need besides food. It was so comfortable and an amazing getaway! The bed you could just melt in! Owners are amazing, as well! We’re staying at the Meadow for Valentines Day 2024 and can’t wait!
