This place is adorable! While it's a little drive to most tourist attractions, the quiet country setting is ideal. Fresh eggs in the fridge was a sweet surprise!If I had any issue at all, the beds were a bit hard for my personal preference. But, that's just me.All in all, a great place to stay!

I brought my mom to this amazing home for a late surprise Mother’s Day weekend. She was excited and well impressed with the house, the grounds (being able to see and pet the horses), and her favorite… the hot tub. On the way home she was raving to anyone that would listen how magical the house was. Thank you for allowing me to give back to my mom as she’s always given me so much. We will definitely return in the future!

I loved this place. It was quiet, secluded, and very clean. It had every basic necessity I could think of. The host was friendly and easily reached. The hot tub was a wonderful addition to our trip. My son also loved meeting a delightful puppy, and both my children greatly enjoyed seeing the horses and other animals. I hope to return! This place is a piece of heaven.

Everything was super clean neat the kitchen had everything you could possibly need though we didn't really use the kitchen. Plenty of towels and there were even towels specifically for the hot tub. It was nice to sit under the stars and listen to Nature while soaking in the hot tub. Super close to restaurants, shopping, hwy and groceries.
