The host was quick to respond and helpful. The inside of the home was nice. Very clean and stocked with all the essentials. However, there was no microwave which made it a bit inconvenient. There also were no mirrors in the rooms which would be great to have since there is only 1 restroom. It is pet friendly which was great! The outdoors was not very presentable which is the main complaint all the guest had. However, the inside of the house was spacious and clean. There was a small bed in the master bed room which i didnt see in the pictures. This property has great potential if the outside was kept up and less cluttered.

The dogs loved it! The outside area was so enjoyable. Inside left a lot to be desired. The oven didn’t work, there was mold, and the back door doesn’t lock.

Very pleasant stay but short

We went to attend a family reunion in Huntsville and just needed an overnight place to sleep.

Beautiful Property

We stayed here while in Huntsville for a wedding (At the Shire) and it was perfect for kids. The main attraction of this property is the large amount of land and space for kids to roam. The owners installed a zip line, a large trampoline, and lots of animals roam like ponies, chickens, and rabbits. We are from Austin so it was a treat for our kids to have so much open outdoor space! The actual house part is perfectly fine and accommodating and has a rustic country feel - although outdoors is the real draw. It was very private and peaceful, just prepare for roosters to wake you up:) This is about 10 mins east of Huntsville.
