Beautiful Property with some issues
Cabin and location are absolutely beautiful. Cabin well stocked for kitchen so cooking was easy. Host very responsive for questions and concerns. Clean cabin besides the issue I mention below.Stayed during a very warm weekend, but there was little we could do to cool the cabin. AC was barely able to push out cool air and there werent screens on windows to all us to vent hot air or pull in cooler air at night. Sleeping temperature was around 90 degrees in the upstairs bedrooms.Porch doors also had trouble staying shut, so it was also wide open when we arrived and due to this a bird was trapped inside as well as bugs. Removed bird ourselves and cleaned up bird poop and bugs before relaxing.The host has said that they will address those concerns, so hopefully the situation will be better for future guests.

Long weekend get away
Very beautiful place. Very private and accommodations were perfect.There was 8 of us that came down for a long weekend of trout fishing and golfing. A sauna on the site would have made it perfect.

Perfect getaway from the city
We just loved our time here! What a beautiful home and property. So much space for everyone but a cozy feel at the same time. We spent most of our time outside exploring the property. Great place to get away from the hustle of the city and enjoy the nature. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed. Bathrooms and bedrooms were spacious and clean. We can’t wait to go back in the summer or fall!

Beautiful spot
The cabin was very large, and the property was beautiful. It was a great stay, the only thing we were surprised by is that the walls don’t go all the way to the roof upstairs so it could get a little loud- just make sure everyone is heading to bed at the same time!

Terrific family vacation home
The house was beautiful and spacious. The beds were very comfortable and there were extra pillows and blankets available. We loved the large, well provisioned kitchen and the two refrigerators. Lots of dishes, glasses of all kinds, and more pots and pans and baking pans than I've ever seen in a rental!
The hosts have thoughtfully provided little bins of those things that are often forgotten (toothbrush, comb, etc.) as well as tea, creamers, sugar and sweetners. A bin of left behind bug spray was nice, although we really did not encounter many mosquitos the week we were there (so dry). The freezer in the garage had extra bags of ice which was great because it is a long drive to the nearest store and the ice maker was not keeping up with our group of 8.
Jessica (the host) was very responsive to our queries.
We loved the large selection of games and puzzles. We also loved the beautiful pool table and the foosball table. We made good use of all of them.
We used the gas grill many nights, ran out of propane, contacted Jessica who quickly replied and said if we would go ahead and refill both tanks, she would reimburse us.
We left behind some information on the local towns and activities. We went mini-golfing, bowling, out for ice cream, biking and hiking. Tried fishing in the trout stream, too.
Fabulous family vacation in a quiet rural location.

Awesome venue
Our stay was just awesome! Great facility for our Family. We were in an out all weekend! So we did spend much time outside but the scenery was beautiful. Saw and dodged several turtles. They were both ok. I think one was nesting in the driveway outside the garage. So be careful. The host was a great communicator and all our questions were answered properly. Would definitely return again.

Beautiful home in the valley
This place is highly recommended and is the perfect getaway for the family! The home was spacious, more than enough to accommodate our big group. The beds are comfortable, cookware are plentiful, and the board games kept the kids busy. The available amenities provided us with everything we needed. Jessica is a wonderful host and was quick to respond to any questions. Thank you for a memorable weekend! Everyone was able to unwind and enjoy some peace and quiet. We will definitely visit again!
