Lovely, remote home
Stayed with family for a wedding in town. The home is actually bigger than it looks in the pictures. Immaculately clean with everything we needed. It was also nice to park in the garage since it was raining during our stay. One thing I’d suggest is some window treatments in the TV room space. It’s a little creepy at night and a bummer for the person sleeping on the bed in that space in the morning. We would definitely stay again.

Great location and wonderful space
We were in town for a wedding. The layout was wonderful with two wings. The kitchen was so well stocked. We had our 85 year old parents with us and the easy step-free access was great for them. The seating throughout was abundant and comfy, especially on the front porch. We played cards at the big kitchen table and cooked our meals together. It was fun. Thank you!!

Birthday stay
We booked this home as a birthday get together for 4 couples. It was perfect for what we needed: plenty of space to play yard games, grill and indoor games when it rained. The cabin was clean, beds were comfortable and check-in/out process simple. The one question we ran into was answered promptly and the property manager was over with in 15 minutes with a quick fix. Would definitely stay here again!

Weekend Stay
Everything was very clean and all the directions around the house were great! Everything that was stated was there and host was very responsive with questions, which made it a very easy stay. The backyard was nice for yard games and a fire. Will be back if I’m the area again!
