Nice, secluded home.

The home is located on a secluded lot with a wonderful stream running through the back yard. The front and rear patios are perfect for sitting and talking or reading a good book. The interior is nicely decorated and the kitchen stocked with all the pots, pans, tableware, and silverware needed. I've shared some improvement opportunities privately with the owner which lead me to the rating given. The key item being slow Internet service, which the owner assures me will be resolved in the next ~6 months (fiber optics being run through the neighborhood).

This place was such a welcome escape from the stress of the year. The home is clean and comfortable and located in a such a peaceful setting. We traveled with our quarantine family and had five kids between us. We were pleased to find the property was so great for the kids. Lots of exploring to be done in the yard and the creek. The home included plenty of rain boots for the kids to use stomping around in the stream and some scooters for motoring around the driveway. One morning we were lucky to get some snow and surprised to find some sleds available for our use. Plenty of space for us all to spread out and all of the supplies we would need to cook family meals. We enjoyed the fireplace for warming up on the colder nights and we ventured out a few times to enjoy the community pool and putt putt golfing. The location is great and we are already talking about visiting again and seeing more of this beautiful part of the state.

This home fit 10 people comfortably. Spacious kitchen and living areas, roomy porches, and a beautiful setting we’re a few of the highlights. We also loved the sound of the stream running through the backyard. Biggest challenge was the internet; it crawled at 1.55 Mbps making even casual internet browsing a chore. I would recommend this unit to anyone who wants to unplug.

The owners and neighbors were absolutely delightful! We loved our time at the cabin by the creek. Our children played, mined for gems, and built dams in the crystal clear creek out back for most of our week. The house was pristine and well equipped. Close to many family friendly fun attractions such as "Bust your Butt" falls (a natural waterfall slide), Fairfield Lake, and many hikes and waterfalls. We will be back!
