The house was amazing! We loved the decor and was super spacious. The outside needs some attention though. We were looking forward to sitting by the fire and cooking out, but it had not been cleaned up and the lights did not work so that was a bummer. There also is a step on the stairs that needs to be replaced. We had a great time though and enjoyed the house. Thank You!

Check-in was simple, host was responsive, and amenities are nice. Cleanliness could be improved upon. Cob webs and dead bugs in bedrooms, hair in bathroom drawers, and there was a dirty plate with what looked like spaghetti still on it that was put away with the clean dishes. We had to go to Walmart and purchase some cleaning supplies. Could also use new pots and pans. We were unable to use the main tv in the living room because the cable box was broken. WiFi, when it worked, was very slow. Overall, we were happy with our stay. Next time, we would probably book the ruby cabin instead of the sapphire.

Perfect Hideaway

A perfect place for a one night stay or a week. Very nicely decorated and super clean. Lots of things to do and see within a fairly short distance. Plenty of room for kids to enjoy indoor and outdoor activities.

Our family members between ages 63 to 88 spent the weekend together here and had a wonderful time. Between us all, we tote a lot of pills. Made s’mores, saw some huge fish, and laughed till we hurt.Wonderful surroundings. Good food at Rumps bbq.

Beautiful location

The property was beautiful. Quiet and private. Loved watching the deer. And the kids really enjoyed the pond fishing. They had items that you tend to forget which was awesome. The beds were comfy and plenty of space was availabile for all of us.
