Spacious, beautiful home with very comfortable beds. Serene location. Relaxing hot tub! Exceptionally clean and well decorated home. Great deck and fire ring with nice lighting. If I have one recommendation, I'd like more wash cloths (only had 3 and we had 6 people) and a mirror in the master bedroom. But I'm just being picky.Definitely worth the 5 star rating and would stay again.

Cozy, clean, relaxing and close enough to everything!

We loved staying here. The neighborhood is quiet. We would do coffee walks every morning, read on the porch, do fires, and the beds were actually comfy (hard to tell with photos and sometimes beds at rentals are springy and rough) I have hip problems and had no trouble sleeping! It’s 10-30 minutes from everything just about but it’s so scenic It never feels that long, I am 1000% booking again. Only

Absolutely Wonderful!

Many thanks to Kim for the ease of communication, attention to detail in the house, cleanliness and just such a wonderful place to call home for a week. She was quick to accommodate a slightly earlier arrival when we got to the area sooner than anticipated. The house was very clean and the mattress toppers for the sleeper sofa were a great addition! The kitchen was very well stocked and made cooking a breeze while away. We were close to a number of great hikes and spent our week exploring the area - so beautiful! Thank you again for the great stay!!
