• Great place to stay!

  5/5

  This is a beautiful, spacious home. We love the radiant floor heat! The accommodations were very nice and beds were comfortable. We even had a moose drop by in the backyard 2 days! We enjoyed our stay and will be back!

  The property and home itself were well maintained, clean, and very comfortable to stay in.

  Unfortunately, we had a rare winter storm roll through mid-October that put a bit of a damper on our stay since we lost a day and half with our son. Obviously, no one's fault at all. We were snowed in and unable to get out of the driveway.

  The owner was as accommodating as he could be given the situation. We ended up losing power on our last day there but were honestly okay with it since we were checking out the next morning. We were just planning to bundle up and pack our things as best we could before it got dark.

  However, we also had no water after a few hours. My family is no stranger to being without power since we are from Florida and experienced back-to-back hurricanes in our area this month. But since we were unable to get adequate supplies the day before due to being stuck, we didn't even have bottled water on hand. We decided to check out and go to the hotel on base where my son is stationed.

  My husband reached out to the owner and asked if we could possibly receive a partial refund for that day and to our sincere and honest surprise, Nick refunded our last night! We were so happy to finally get a win after the hurricanes and being taken advantage of by a company in Florida I won't mention here. Thank you so much for understanding and trying to help us in every way you could. It was truly appreciated by my entire family.

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. Unfortunately, a rare winter storm came through and we got snowed in for about a day and a half. We ended up losing power, and then water the day before we were due to check out. We are no stranger to being without power as we are from Florida and endured back-to-back hurricanes literally the week before this scheduled trip! We were fine with no power since we were due to check out the next morning but not having any bottled water on hand made the water situation more difficult to navigate. The host was so wonderful and gave us a full refund once we let him know that we wouldn't be able to stay. I thought that was really nice of him to do that since he couldn't control things any more than we could.

  The home was very accommodating and had everything we needed. I know others have mentioned that a snow shovel would be nice to have on hand, and I agree.

  Other than that the home was well stocked with linens, and plenty of bedding.

  It's in a beautiful part of the town and off the beaten path a bit which we truly enjoyed.

  The only negative aspect I experienced had nothing to do with the owner or the home.

  It had to do with Evolve. They were frankly awful to deal with, charged me twice for the damage insurance which I tried to point out several times prior to my stay but they kept insisting that they didn't. Well, they did! I'm still trying to get that money back and their customer service is still denying they double charged me so I've just given up and can hopefully dispute the charge through my credit card company. Overall fantastic trip with a house that provided all we needed!
