Fantastic!

This was our favorite house, by far. The details like the coffee provided, soft sheets, enough dinnerware and serving pieces to feed all of Red River in style, paper goods, spacious rooms…I could go on. But the view and watching the sunrise on the front porch was the best!

Perfect for Larger Family Vacation

This beautiful home is perfect for a larger family group. It was absolutely beautiful, with so many little details and amenities that we appreciated. Kitchen fully stocked with a large family in mind. We only had six people in our group, but were still very comfortable with the extra room. The location was perfect to take in the breathtaking color changes this fall.

This was without a doubt one of the best experiences that I’ve had with renting a property. It was very clean and was exactly as advertised. It had all the supplies that we needed and was so comfortable for our whole family. It allowed us to focus on having a great time and not worrying about our accommodations. I will definitely recommend this to everyone and will use this again in the future.

Perfect for Celebrating my 50th Birthday!

The property was amazing, the location was beautiful, and the home accommodated all of us perfectly. We had everything we needed for the weekend to host a relatively large group. We were able to enjoy both inside the cabin and the fire pit area outside. Everyone loved every bit of it. The only issue we thought we might have was with parking, namely to park an RV and accommodate the vehicles that joined us for our gathering but we were able to situate all vehicles on the property. One thing to consider is that a flight of stairs is required to navigate to load/unload items, as the entrance is upstairs. There are also stairs to access the upper bedroom, loft, and sitting area so this should be considered for older people or those who have any kind of issue with stairs. Our group navigated this part of it okay, but it rained quite a bit while there, so some sort of slip resistance on the external stairs would be warranted. I never got a chance to write in the guest book, as the entire weekend was busy! I highly recommend this for a large group or large family. Everyone loved it!
