5/5 We had a 10 out of 10 experience with our 6 night stay! We were allowed an earlier check in the with great communication with the hostess. The place was immaculate, cozy, excellent WiFi, great outdoor space. Private which we avidly loved. We grilled out a couple nights, had a bonfire, cooked smores (complimentary by the hostess) We will be back in the spring 2026 Thanks again Helen. You were so wonderful to work with. Wish you all the best!

5/5 Insanely charming little house, secluded but not too far from towns, surrounded by all the nature one needs in this overstimulating world!
The house its self is just perfect with all new furniture and essentials, screened in porch for morning and evening enjoyment, all the necessities you could possibly need, plus lots of extras! Wifi and a smart tv, And the host were phenomenal!
I will definitely be back!
