Our stay was wonderful, down to the tiniest detail! The location, the house, and grounds were just perfect for our family and the host thought of EVERY last detail! We felt right at home in this spotless, serene location! We’ve recommended it to all our friends and family and we’d definitely stay here again!

Excellent! Lulled to sleep by nearby creek at night. Nice quiet area with plenty of area for walking. The house is very spacious, well furnished,well maintained and clean. Great place for family gatherings inside and out. Hope to do it again and highly recommend it to friends.

The stay was great. Enjoyed the sound of the water flowing from the small creek. The fire pit was wonderful enjoyed roasting marshmallows. The BBQ grill was a bonus, worked well and our burgers turned out great. The hosts were very kind and responsive if their was any questions. The beds were nice too and having the bath and a half helped out alot. Lost of supplys were available if we needed something.
