We had such a great stay! The place was spotless, cozy, and super pet-friendly! The outdoor fire pit was perfect for relaxing evenings. Erin was very accommodating and had great communication, which made everything so easy. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Extremely friendly and helpful host. The house was very clean and beautiful. The location is perfect, close to the lake but not close enough to deal with the confusion. Proximity to both fonta flora and lake James mountain bike trails we very close.

The house was cozy and very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked except there was only on small pot, but plenty of pans. The listing said the house has private river access. I took that to mean that there was river access directly behind the house. A clarifying statement that river is accessible by a short drive would have been helpful. Once I adjusted my expectations, we had a great time. Thank you.
