While at Danena, enjoy the gorgeous fresh water pool with a swim or relax on the stunning property with a book or some time to write and reflect.  Many people rent cars so they can explore more readily while on our breaks.  Whether you need time to slow down and do less or you would like to explore a bit more, there will be something for everyone.
