Great property, very thoughtfully furnished. Kitchen wonderfully stocked with a lot of breakfast items including farm fresh eggs and sausages, which we enjoyed. Lots of helpful information about the house and nearby attractions. Only downside is the lack of a second shower stall, which could be inconvenient for a large family.

We had a great stay. We were excited to stay as this home was owned by our family in the late 1950’s. The yard is huge for our dogs. Tony had everything you could need. I have rented many homes over the years and this was the best stocked. He even had dog dishes.

Great place!!

We greatly enjoyed our overnight stay. This place has a quiet location that has easy access to nearby activities/businesses. The stocked kitchen is definitely a bonus for travelers, as it really helped that we didn’t need to stop and pick up anything for breakfast or to drink. The place is tastefully decorated and comfortable. Highly recommend!! Would definitely stay again if we need lodging in the area.

Home was very nicely equipped with everything you might need - uniquely decorated and very comfortable for 4-6 people. We anticipated having to go to the grocery store but everything we needed was there (condiments, bread, fruit, drinks, breakfast foods, and choice of farm fresh or organic eggs). Nicely done Tony…thank you for the wonderful stay! Wish we could have stayed longer than two days!
