Yes Dan was very welcoming, what stood out the most was the terrible weather while we were there. A foot of snow and cold. Dan helped make the stay enjoyable still. Snow was removed quickly. Dan went out of his way to get us a firestick so that we could watch an important bowl game. The ranch house was comfortable with everything you needed to stay for 18 days.

Relaxing stay in beautiful community

The location was amazing. We come for the Creation Museum and it was a short drive from the house. We loved that a park was just a couple of blocks away from the home and the kids loved playing there in the evening. The area was very walkable and it was fun walking to the view the river sunsets. Would recommend for families for sure.
