Our relaxing stay in the woods

This was exactly what I needed. The house is at the end of a really long drive way, I'd say a 3rd of a mile of the rd!!! I loved that, it was so peaceful. In the morning when I'd have my coffee I could hear the birds singing, I got to see wild turkeys and the 2nd morning I saw a deer 🦌 I've never seen either of those animals before. My teenager was happy to have fast wifi, he brought his Playstation and was able to live HIS best life. The flowers around the house are beautiful, the fire pit was a great added bonus and the grill was my husband's favorite part. I could tell the house was well taken care of and lots of love was put into making it our perfect country get away. We will definitely be back.

We stayed there for 7 days to help out a friend who bought a house in the area

It was a great place to stay for us…..it was a work vacation for me and two of my friends…..the place is just as advertised…..if you like peace and quiet after a days work or just to get away then this is the place for you…..the property is well maintained and we enjoyed the small pond and the steams that ran through….the big back deck that overlooked the backyard and the woods was a big plus for me as I am an outdoors person and love to be outside all night until I go to bed…..the fire pit was also a bonus…..the owners were very friendly and let us know if we needed firewood to let them know and they would drop some off to us…..overall a really great stay…..the Washington general store was only a 6 minute drive up the road which was very convenient as they served a great breakfast lunch and dinner…..also made a new friend where a porcupine would come by every night before sunset….I’ve never seen one before in real life…..it was really cool…..would love to go back for a real vacation instead of work…. Definitely two thumbs up from us…..
