This is a beautiful and very clean place. Decorated beautifully with everything you need. Stunnng views. There were five girls in our party and each of us had a bed of our own and four of us had our own bedroom. The only thing I would say is there are quite a few stairs so you should be aware of that. We were all in our 70s and made it just fine. We will be back.

Details Matter

To begin, we had a lovely stay at the home. From the moment we checked in to when we checked out, our family was constantly surprised at the details and consideration of the homeowners. The home is well appointed, each room has small considerations from hampers, phone charging clocks, personalized air units to night lights. The home is fully equipped with everything needed except food. No need to buy paper towels they are provided, dish soap, plastic wrap Tupperware, coffee. Etc… the owners thoughtfully and discreetly labeled equipment, appliances, remotes etc..so there’s no guessing. To top it off the covered deck with fan and viewing chairs was our favorite spot to take in the refreshing morning mountain views, acrobatic humming birds, and wild life. Our children explored the area, watch movies purchased by the owners, played games and loved thier room. My mother working to survive cancer felt rested and refreshed. The short of it - we will definitely book this home again.
