The owner was very easy to deal with and quickly responded to our questions. This home is a real gem, you feel totally connected with nature. The kitchen was well appointed and you have everything needed for meal prep. Living area is comfortable, as were the bedrooms. We will put this home on our list of must return again.

It’s so nice to find great accommodations that allow pets. We, as well as our friends travel everywhere with our beloved dogs. We like to cook our own food. This place is ideal for that as it has all the kitchen amenities you need. Best of all, the property rental rate is reasonably priced. And the host is absolutely accommodating, responsive, and helpful. The location is super quiet and nestled in the woods. Definitely staying at the property again, the next time we’re in the area.
