The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our six night stay. The entrance ramp was a huge benefit for my elderly mother who was traveling with us. The host quickly responded to my questions and the location was perfect for our needs. I would definitely stay here again.

We had great stay at this property in late August. The house is very well appointed, very clean and well stocked. The location is great - close to all attractions (and convenient to exploring nearby areas) but felt very private. Zac was a great host and super easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend staying here.

So easy to work with and reach out to if needed. The property was the perfect size for the 5 of us. The kids loved running around in the yard and checking out the deer while winding down for the night.

We were so happy to stay here!! There were 5 adults and we were very comfortable. We found it spotless in every room. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with everything you would need to stay. This is not a cottage it's a home.would recommend anyone going to the Scarborough area to stay here.

Wonderful home

This property is in a tranquil and relatively private location, all while being close to things to do. The hosts are wonderful and provided a nice binder with local recommendations and a beautiful floral arrangement. The Jones Family Farm goats milk soap smelled delicious and was a nice touch. It was a nice reprieve from the busy work-week and was such a lovely home!
