Wonderful secluded house
One of our absolute favorite stays! Private, clean house with tons of space, perfect for long trips. Great kitchen and comfortable living area, and the gas grill on back patio is a great perk. Bedrooms and bathroom on each level is great for large groups. Will definitely stay again!

Comfortable & perfect location
This home was in the perfect location. Not too far away from everything and not on top of people. The neighborhood was quiet, except for the nearby creek which was peaceful to listen to. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We had a wonderful time in a comfortable home. Thank you. Also, our inquiries were responded to quickly.
