Linda was an extraordinary host and the property was clean, well-maintained, and cozy! Linda took the time to explain the amenities and what the property had to offer. Communication was clear and punctual prior to us arriving and she even had baked goods on the counter which we thought was a sweet gesture.We plan on booking again this year. - PL and MC

This is the best place we have ever stayed, ever!! It is so beautiful and peaceful and secluded and quiet and everything in and around the place was perfect. There were so many little things that added to the already exceptional yurt. We never desire to go to the same place twice. We plan on making this our special yearly retreat. Linda and Kerry are the kindest, loviest people we have ever had as hosts. The only problem was we didn’t stay long enough. Top ratings!

We came for our honeymoon and the moment we arrived we were greeted by Linda and Kerry the hosts. The Yurt is very well designed and has every special touch u need. Nestled in the forest with beautiful trees. It was quiet and gave us the reset we needed. We will definitely be back.

It was one of our top 5 VRBO we have stayed in. The hosts Linda and Kerry were very welcoming. The space was so unique, we loved that we felt like we here in a tree house. It was very comfortable and fit all of our needs. We would definitely stay there again and would recommend it to anyone.
