We had a great stay at the Hayes home. It was very comfortable and spacious. Lots to do there at the house with lawn games, hot tub and the river at the bottom of the garden with paddle boards and canoes to use. Lots of space for big families, different areas to chill out and relax or all come together on the main deck to cook and eat. The local area has lots to do, Good restaurants and cafes, lots of outdoor activities and access to the park is pretty close. John was a great host with quick communication.

What an amazing home. We had 4 couples and we so happy when we arrived. The outdoor space is exceptional sitting around the fire pit at night. The added bonus of so many need guns brings back childhood memories. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and the pizza oven is amazing. John and Jen have done great with this home.

Absolutely an amazing property. The house is gorgeous, well appointed, spotless clean, very comfortable and the views are spectacular. The hosts were lovely, responsive and very helpful. We hosted a small bridal shower and they had every kind of serving piece and table decor you could need. The house is so well equipped I can't begin to list everything that was included. As a serious cook the kitchen has everything you need. Bedrooms were comfortable and quiet. We will be back for sure!!!
