We enjoyed a week here with a 10 person family gathering. We found it to a very nice location and thoroughly enjoyed it. Highlights for us were...Generously stocked with cleaning, laundry and dish supplies. Including a large selection of Keurig pods, Seasonings/herbs, and oils. Many outdoor locations to congregate and enjoy to farmland views. Including a very quiet backyard swing for 2. A great fire pit.Kitchen is first rate. Easily handling 2 full meals a day. Downstairs bathroom/shower got great reviews from us all. Tons of towels and extra linens with a really good laundry.Wifi handled everything we threw at it without issue. Well set up for outdoor entertainment. There are many games, extra chairs, and 2 full size picnic tables. My main suggestion for potential renters would be to bring longer charging cords.The house predates wired electric so modern outlets are at a minimum in the older front and upstairs bedrooms. Ext cords and powerstrips are provided to help alleviate this, but long charging cords are helpful to get things near you. We would stay again.

Great Stay!

A few friends and I were in town for a wedding and stayed at the property with our dogs. It is a beautiful setting, especially in fall! We enjoyed using the deck and fire pit, and the beds were comfy. One thing to note is to have an accurate count of how many people will be staying with you because that will change the price of your stay.
