Package Testimonial
I wish to compliment and thank the resort for the excellent service and facilities for our recent "girls weekend". The 14 of us had a most enjoyable time with golfing, cooking instruction by Chef Shawn, the food, and the entertainment at the Rare Bird Pub. The accommodations at the DesBarres Manor were so comfortable it was hard to leave. We are looking forward to our return trip in 2008 for another memorable weekend.
