I really wish I could give Joanna a 6 star rating. The house was immaculate in terms of cleanliness, comfort and a well stocked kitchen. Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the weekend. Joanna is such a gracious host. From the extra welcome goodies to the rapid responses to all of our inquiries, we couldn’t possibly ask for more. If we ever come back to the area, we will absolutely rebook!

This house is a lovely historic home that we thoroughly enjoyed. It was very comfortable and well appointed and the owners graciously left us firewood and a loaf of delicious sourdough bread! We would definitely stay here again.
