This property was great for our needs. The screened in porch was a perfect place to enjoy the beautiful weater and breeze without being in the direct sun. The trains were a joy to watch pass by and were not loud or obnoxious at all. The owners were friendly and allowed us to use their bigger fishing pole and some live bait. We had all we needed in terms of dishes, cooking utensils and pans. It was very sweet of them to leave a bottle of wine for us to enjoy as well. We would definitely recommend this place.

This was a perfect place for our low-key weekend. I especially appreciate the small things that make it welcoming and easy - the towels, dish soap, shampoo and soaps in the bathrooms, etc. Those are always a pain to pack and always a toss up if they are included. The hosts were very responsive to helping us with the fire pit. The hammocks were amazing- the house was roomy and comfy. We will be back!
