Roomy house with a great location surrounded by pine trees. We stayed here with our adult children and granddaughter and there was plenty of room for everyone. It's well stocked and we were able to cook for the family. We picked this location so we could spend some time at Silverwood Theme Park, which is just a few miles away. It worked out perfectly and we plan to stay here again in the future.

We loved our stay at this rental. It was a quick drive to Silverwood Theme Park and plenty big for our party of 8. The host went above and beyond to quickly and carefully mail back one of our cell phones that was accidentally left behind and lost in the couch. Will definitely stay again in the future.

Our communication with the host was good, friendly and informative. From the outside, we were a bit nervous about the place when we arrived. The back yard - once we found it - was lovely and we spent time out there relaxing. The amenities - all the supplies - were great. The house inside was dated, and while clean, the furniture in the living room and the carpet in the one bedroom need to be replaced. The location was good for our visit to the theme park. If the front area (where you park) was cleaned up and made more inviting, I'm sure the initial reaction would have been much better. Thanks to the host for letting us stay. We felt comfortable and were able to relax and enjoy our time together.

Fantastic location near silverwood theme park!

This property was a little off the beaten path but less than 10min from silverwood theme park. Great location for our family as we were there for park fun. Kitchen was well stocked, house was homey, very quite and private. Wonderful backyard where my granddaughters indulged on their raspberry bushes. Beds were a little on the hard side, but very clean and plenty of linens.Property host was very responsive and flexible. I asked late after the booking if i could bring my dogs and there was no problem adding them. Very accommodating. Its not fancy but clean and well kept.id recommend to a friend and would book again.

Close to Silverwood

We knew from the pictures and other reviews that it is an older home. We chose it because of the proximity to Silverwood. It is just a few minutes drive. We did not anticipate the very old furniture with holes in the upholstery, and holes in the carpet. The kitchen did have all the necessary equipment but a little short on silverware. There air conditioner works well. The lawn on the backside of the house was nice. The host can’t control nature but the wasps were terrible. Overall this house was just okay. We won’t come back though and I won’t recommend it to friends

Fantastic location for your Silverwood Theme Park trip!

Less than 10 minutes of a short and easy drive from Silverwood Theme Park! The home was very clean and had wonderful three bedrooms for personal space for all. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything one would need to cook from home. Included was a nice and clean propane barbecue too! The backyard was perfect with the barbecue, portable cooler on wheels for your cold beverages, two tables with eight chairs provides room for the whole family! All this under a covered patio which provided shade and protection from rain. Included was a corn-hole boards/bean bags which we used in a lovely green grass backyard which was very private. Loved this home and location! We will definitely be back for our next Silverwood Theme Park adventure!

So Relaxing

This property was very clean and perfect for our needs. Very spacious, lovely yard to BBQ and relax in and extremely close to SILVERWOOD theme park. Took literally minutes to get to and from park and grocery store just down the road a few miles.

16th birthday

Our stay was amazing and the gentlemen who run the property were awesome. Easy communication and check in and out process. Couple of tiny issues many plugins in the kitchen/dining room didn't seem to work not sure if it was operator error or not, and in the main bathroom above the toilet there appears to be possible be a water leak as i did notice a little bit of mildew. Otherwise great rental they even hung a happy 16th birthday banner at no extra cost and let her eep it. I will definitely use these gentlemen again.

A quiet setting and gracious host

We needed an extended stay for our unique situation and Joe and Joshua were the best hosts! The house is comfy and well proportioned even for a family of five with pets. All the amenities were there for a longer stay, and the location is perfect for a short commute to CdA. The backyard is lovely and serene and there was plenty of parking for multiple vehicles and even our storage trailer and boat! We are so grateful to have found this place and the wonderful accommodating hosts!
