This house was perfect for 2adults. The property is well maintained and has more amenities than we got around to using. Great nostalgic decor. Fully equipped kitchen with one appliance missing…a dishwasher. Otherwise a very cozy vacation!

We had a much too brief stay, but what a lovely cottage in the most gorgeous setting. It has the feel of an old-school cabin but all the conveniences of a modern home. We especially loved the eclectic and plentiful selection of books. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped. Lovely to fall asleep to the sound of the rushing creek nearby. A great base to explore all the glorious hiking in the area. We'll definitely be back!

The gatehouse was a perfect spot for a girls trip getaway. Secluded enough, but close to some local activities and restaurants! Cozy vibe and place had everything we needed!

A perfect getaway!

The property was very clean and comfortable! Katie was responsive to all our requests. We had a great weekend hiking and the area had great restaurants and the distillery was fun. The house itself was well equipped. I’d like to go back when it is warmer to enjoy the outside amenities like the deck and fire pit.We will be back!
