It was quite an very country. It was different from the airb&bs we have rented in the past. It was like a hotel room. Very clean and served our needs perfectly. It had trails to take a walk a nice pond to set and ponder on your day. The owner was very nice. He lives in the house and the room is attached. His dogs are great will fetch for hours 😊

Idyllic country retreat

The hosts gave us a warm welcome, and showed us around their lovely property, including a visit with their two miniature ponies. Paul let us know that if we needed anything, we just had to ask.The rural setting was peaceful and quiet.The room was private and very clean; the queen bed extremely comfortable. We enjoyed our stay, and would be glad to return, any time we travel to that location. Thanks, Paul and Kirsten!

Amazing property off the beaten track

This was my second time staying at the property in the last few months. The last stay was so great, that I had to return for a second experience. One of the comfiest beds with old school home-made comforter/quilts and Westin-bed level pillows. Super quiet and peaceful and the hosts are wonderful.
