We hit our stay exactly right- and got to stay in a beautiful, well equipped rental in the middle of a beautiful wooded area with every color of leaf surrounding us. Fantastic view from the sunroom. Great communication. Would stay here again.

We had an incredible stay at the Carriage House! It was immaculately clean and well stocked. The hosts were extremely attentive and answered every question quickly. They even kept the pool open for us!

Cleaning was impressive! House was very calm, spacious, and they had all extra towels, bath robes etc. everything was very good to feel comfortable. However there are some cons as well, unfortunately cooking stuff was not really good and enough, luckily we had some stuff with us. So, if you want to cook, you should be prepared. We were also expecting to have some nice walking area around home, but there was not, so if you expect to do hiking within walking distance, this is not it.

Host is fantastic, Rebecca was very helpful and accommodating in all aspects. The cottage was very nice, few more outlets would be nice, but overall very comfy and inviting. The driveway could benefit from a few lights as we used it at might and it was a bit scary.
