The stay was great! Kitchen was packed with everything you might need. First time I've never needed my kitchen bag I take for traveling. We didnt see any wildlife. Wondering if it’s bc of all the dogs that are penned up. They didnt bark much though. We will diffidently be staying again.

Amazing Stay
We stayed for our Christmas vacation. The house was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to be able to cook at home. It was very clean and cozy. We enjoyed feeding the deer off the back patio. It was a great location for everything we were planning to do while we were there, definitely recommend this place to friends and family
