You barely need to pack

This place has literally everything you need. The guest house accommodated our large family comfortably and had all the cooking needs you could possibly think of. There were plenty of towels, beds, showers, pillows, extra blankets… you name it. Mary was a generous host, and her home felt like we were visiting family. Would consider staying again

We stayed at this property during our sons wedding at a venue less than 3 miles away. It was perfect to accommodate our family including small children. Clean and roomy. Mary gave us her schedule so I was aware of times she would be coming and going. Would rent here again

Fun with Friends

House was comfortable and relaxing. It is a delightful old farm house - well updated with comfortable beds. It was closer than expected to a rather busy road. Needed to get use to the traffic noise. Location was convenient for visiting places in the area. Also enjoyed bird watching and some deer sightings.

This home is charming and offers everything one might need. It was somewhat elusive to locate in the dark, so I would suggest leaving a light on for guests would make it easier; there's plenty of space for parking. There are stairs leading to the second floor where 3 of the bedrooms are located. Overall, the home is spacious and comfortable. Mary, the landlord lives on the 3rd floor but you wouldn't know it; the only contact we had with her was once as she was leaving; she shares the primary entrance to the home, but she is pleasant and nonintrusive. The beds were very comfortable with plenty of extra pillows and blankets. There is a TV set in the main area, but not sure what programming it offers. (I didn't see this mentioned in the ad, so perhaps this is something that would improve the listing.) Overall, this home was a welcome comfort after a long day on the lake and suited our needs perfectly.

Wonderful weekend!

Absolutely loved our time! Perfect open kitchen/dining area for family time while cooking/eating. Ample parking and helpful/accommodating host! The kids loved the space and the hot cocoa with breakfast! They continuously asked if it "could be our third house and we move in so we can come whenever we we want"! Can't wait to be back!
