Outstanding home accommodating my large family very comfortably for our holiday gathering. Santa train literally rolled through the back yard making the evening extra special for the children. Hands down the cleanest rental we have ever stayed at.

Our sons LOVE this house! Our second stay, this time we brought my parents along too! Plenty of space, everything is well stocked, comfortable and clean. We came to ride the E.B.T. train- took the earliest departure and then spent the rest of the day with a front row seat watching the train come and go past the property! Such a perfect stay for train enthusiasts.

Maybe one of my favorite stays ever! The house itself is an absolute gem and well appointed, and being able to have a camp fire and watch the trains pass was just a wonderful experience. Planning to book again next year!
