This place was perfect for us!!! Couldn’t have been any better for what we were doing. Easy access to trails and the outside patio was perfect. Very clean, comfortable, and plenty of room.
My dog loved the property, exploring and of course the daily deer running by to bark at!! We loved the peace and quiet. Get some firewood, a warm cup of coffee/cocoa, and sit on the porch!
