We'll be back

Scenery was beautiful and property was private. Felt like we were out in the woods without really being too far away. Check in was a breeze and the home was cozy. Can't wait to stay again.

Deep creek

We really enjoyed staying here, it's a beautiful area and a very comfortable space. Although we couldn't find public access to the lake within walking distance, we especially enjoyed Swallow Falls which was a short drive away.

Tranquil House in the Hills

Tranquility, peace, and quiet. This was an excellent home, as marketed. The property is private but close enough to everything. Outstanding communication with the owners Chuck and Kathy

One of the best places we have stayed!

This house was as described. It was beautiful, clean and fully equipped. There is pretty much any appliance or kitchen tool that you would need, provided. The owners even had skewers for making smores at the firepit. Our first morning there I sent a message to the owners to let them know that the regular coffee maker wasn't working. They showed up the next day with a new coffee maker! You also can not beat the property. Our first night there were 12 deer in the yard. Every morning I would sit on the porch, drink my coffee and watch the deer, and listen to the birds. The house is surrounded by woods, so you are sure to see/hear lots of wildlife. Our family will absolutely stay at this house again!

Best Place

We had a grand time for the month of August. Came up to get out of the Florida heat and it couldn’t have been better. The Hosts were great communicators, friendly, and had great attention to detail throughout the house. They were very responsive to all conversations

Convenient, clean, and private

We had a great stay over the 4th of July weekend. Location is perfect for visiting the lake as well as the local parks and trails. The house was cozy and clean with all the amenities and relaxing in the backyard without the sites or sounds of any neighbors was very peaceful. Overall, 10/10 and we will hopefully be back soon!

Peaceful

Staying here was great it was so peaceful and pretty. We were lucky it snowed while we were there which is exactly what we wanted. The only thing I would say negative was the beds. The main bed was comfortable but all the other beds were not very comfortable especially the pull out couch in the loft

Communication

The owners contacted me a day before my check in. I had tried to contact them weeks beforehand to clarify some issues, but they never got my emails or responded. Phoning didn’t work either. Otherwise things in the house were fine and comfortable. And once I had checked in the owner was very responsive and helpful. A good stay!

Property and Owner Wonderful

Our time there was wonderful. Weather delightful enough to keep windows and fans on. House is Beautiful, quiet set back off the road. Close enough to town but not on top of anyone else The last day there we ended up locked out of the cabin several hours and never could get ahold of the rental company Evolve. No response and no matter how many times we called no answer.
