Jesse’s house was wonderful! Our large family had plenty of space, and Jesse was very responsive to our questions. The hot tub was big enough for 5 people, and we used the fire pit every night! Several generations enjoyed this beautiful home.

A beautiful huge house/cabin with nothing to complain about. The host was communicative and helpful. A great place to stay in an absolutely peaceful location. Made for a wonderfully relaxing week. Every time we left the house for a walk or in the car we saw wildlife - deer, groundhogs and wild turkeys galore. Would go again!

Jesse was friendly and responsive. We loved staying and there was plenty for all the kids to do. Also saw a bear which was the highlight of the trip! We will definitely be back.
