Better than a hotel stay

This loft was fabulously designed with an ample kitchen and huge bathroom….the host was very accommodating and responded promptly. I recommend this quiet retreat to anyone rather than a hotel room.

The Tree House was well equipped and very well designed accomodation. The bed was very comfortable; which is important when you're staying away from home. I just wish we could stay longer! Thanks for such a comfy home away from home!

Peaceful and relaxing

Close enough to town but far enough away for peace & quiet. The house and furnishings were great. Clean & accommodating. We didn't feel like we were in a hotel, it felt like our own space. Communication was outstanding and the info provided by the owners was above and beyond any we have ever received. We would stay here again and again.

My husband and I were in the area for a wedding. The location was great to be able to walk and explore or drive. It was a nice getaway and had everything we needed. Our only wish would’ve been that the balcony with fireplace didn’t face the main house.
