House from the outside looks much different than the pictures. Manly because you pull up the the back of the property. Accurate description of where there are feels out in the middle of nowhere. Inside is a cute little cottage feel. Very clean and accurate to description. Doesn't have many cook amenities. Dishwasher unfortunately didn't work while we were there. We only used the place as a 1 night stay.

The property is quite secluded and quiet, which we loved. The space is roomy and everyone was comfortable. The only thing i will mention is that the kitchen is very primitive. So if you're a 1 skillet 2 cookie sheet kind of meal cooker - then this is your spot! If you need more than that, bring it. Lucky for us that's all we required ;) We had a great time!
