Regina

Considering the fact that we were right off of skyline Drive! It was pretty good however the air conditioning and it kept going on and off and when we first got there, they had problems with not having any power! It took them until late afternoon to fix the problem! However, the electric went off again the next day! Considering we are in a very remote area! Could not reach the outside world unless you had a special Wi-Fi set up! And you have to aim your phone up at the sky, reaching for a satellite availability anyway the weekend was very nice. Weather was great as well! Overall, it was a nice vacation.
