Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sam DeLong

Hello I'm Sam.
I'm a retired high school and college teacher. During my more than 30 years as a Shop, Drafting and Graphic Arts teacher, I tried to make learning challenging and fun by using a hands-on approach in all subjects. After retiring I also lectured on cruise ships which allowed me to see a lot of the world.
I was born and raised in Germany, attended German schools and traveled throughout Europe. My wife Carol and I have been married for 44 years. We have two children and one (very spoiled) grandson.

Why they chose this property
The Stone & Cedar Lodge was our primary home for over 35 year. Back in 1985 I designed the home and then served as the general contractor.
The house has a nice flow with a vaulted great room and a sun loft. All of the main large bedrooms have a walk-in closet.
About 2 years ago I had the chance to build a new house in the same neighborhood, which we recently moved in.
For the past months I have painted the house and set it up as a furnished short/long term rental. It was a big job and but now the lodge is finally ready for you to make some great memories.

What makes this property unique
Our Stone & Cedar Lodge is relaxing country home in a very quiet neighborhood in Jessamine county. Each building lot is 2.5 acres so there is plenty of space between each house. Sitting on the front porch, you will see a private lake with many trees and wildlife. The neighborhood is very peaceful - My favorite time to take a stroll is early morning or at sunset.
The pool is 16' by 32' and is only 4.5' deep - Please no diving. Great for swimming laps and playing games.
I want to make sure you will have a wonderful time and, if you have any suggestion how I can improve, I would love to hear from you. If the weather cooperates, I would like to build a nice bonfire during your stay.
