Stay
Given the reason we were here, it was a relief to have somewhere to just unwind and rest. The owner was so responsive and kind.
Lovely decor, great beds, everything we needed to cook basic meals, multiple coffee options in a quiet, gated, wooded neighborhood with nice neighborhood amenities.

I can not say enough good things about our stay, but I will highlight the fact that the communication was so thorough, even above and beyond with letting us know local events or happenings just in case we were interested. Knowing we had kids with us Megan reached out with local kid friendly things to do! The community is beautiful, and everyone is so welcoming. You truly feel at home! The house is clean, location is stunning, and have to add the detailing and decor of the home is impressive! I know people look for reviews about comfort and this is just a homey place, the beds are comfortable and plenty of blankets for those who love their blankets as I do. This home will absolutely be our home away from home when in area. They were sure to make sure all essentials needed were stocked, a binder is left with local things, check in/out instructions, and helpful things like a map of the community. The pool is lake side and stunning. Staff are very pleasant people, very helpful as well - and also speak highly of the family & home! Again, I’ll simply say I can’t say enough good about our stay, Megan and this home!
