Goofs

This movie has several scenes dedicated to tapping maple trees for syrup. However the trees the actors tap are clearly cedar trees. Also, they are seen tapping trees in winter. The sap or syrup would be frozen.

User Reviews

Such good chemistry!!

This movie was absolutely delightful. I am a big fan of Lacey Chabert and her heartfelt and sincere acting, and I watched this for mainly that reason, but boy was I surprised.

Sometimes Hallmark movies can get dull, the story line isn't developed enough, they can be slow, and worst of all, the main characters sometimes have no chemistry.

This was one of the best made for TV movies I have seen in such a long time! Good acting by absolutely everyone, with Lacey shining and even more natural acting abilities than the last time we saw her. It also had adventure, lessons about people changing, re- evaluating and mending strained relationships. No part of it was forced or too adolescent, just an all around enjoyable movie!

I will be watching this one every time it comes on :)
