Most of the room also contain Alexa Echo's which you can have play music, tell you the weather or whatever you would like to ask her.

Wonderful house and property for a family to stay and enjoy all the amenities. George oversees everything and he was amazing with communication, information, making us feel so welcome. Also to note, the coffee bar is an excellent addition.

Perfect Fall Getaway
Couldn’t have chosen a more beautiful spot for our weekend trip. With the fireplace, fire pit, ample supply of wood, the delightful coffee bar, and hot tub we barely wanted to leave, but walking around the property and checking out nearby parks made this a weekend worth repeating.

Big place, fun!
S'mores, fishing with the kids, lots of playing pool. Great reconnection with family. Rickets State Park had beautiful waterfalls. A bear walked right up the driveway. Some rooms were a little dated, but everything was clean.

Beautiful wedding getaway
As advertised this place is huge and is very well stocked. Has a nice layout and is sits in a quiet setting. We had a small wedding ceremony there and except for the weather it was absolutely beautiful! We got to enjoy to all that it had to offer. We got to fish, play pool and enjoy all the wildlife. As advertised we got to see deer and a black bear. The only thing I wish was that we had a few more days to enjoy here! George was very helpful, accommodating and easy to communicate with.

Family trip
Thorne Haven is a lovely home on beautiful and private grounds. It’s equipped with everything you need and more. If you’re looking for a place for a large group of people that offers space for hanging out and playing together or curling up with a good book, this is it.
