Still Perfect

"We first visited Drifting Sands in 10/2007. We have been back once or twice every year until 2 1/2 years ago, due to illness. Returning this trip I was a little nervous. Had the property fallen into disrepair? Had their high standards slipped? Not to worry, it's as beautiful as ever!"
