Host profile image
We are Kim and David Russell. We are parents to many and grandparents to many. We also have our 4 doodles who allow us to live with them. We work hard and love to travel. I love hosting and will only provide a space that I would enjoyed I were traveling. I work hard to make sure you have the cleanest and most relaxing environment as well as fun items to enjoy….bikes, kayaks, yard games. Please come and enjoy this unique creative space we worked so hard on.

Why they chose this property

I’ve owned the house since 1995 with my first husband. He passed in 2015. The property needed a lot of help. I tend to be artistically inclined and drawn to the eclectic things you can do to bring old to new again. My current husband is a work horse and up for anything so if I had a vision of what I wanted he worked with me. I also have great artistic friends. The house became what I knew it could be and hopefully you will enjoy it. Come and relax, sit on the decks by the water, use the kayaks and bicycles provided. Yard games also and the yard is fully fenced. I am pet friendly for the well behaved pups. I July ask that waste be picked up and they not be left alone uncrated if you leave the house. I’ve provided a crate.
