We had a great stay at Morgan's house - she is an excellent host who has clearly put a lot of thought and love into her rental. Had everything we needed - paddleboards and tubes were a huge plus! We loved the front porch with its lake views and the outdoor fire pit area.
A great place to stay. Everything needed for your visit is available. Great place to relax and enjoy the view of Lake Dunmore. We will definitely book again the next time we visit.
We absolutely loved our stay at Golden Hour! The house was clean and cozy with so many nice touches. The extra amenities like the kitchen being fully stocked with everything you could need for meals and having extra charging cables, noise machines and more were so helpful. We spent most of the time relaxing in the sunroom with the gorgeous lake view and fall foliage. We also really enjoyed the vinyl records and books to choose from. We would love to stay here again!
I was blown away by all the special touches at this house, from the seasonal spooky decor to the stocked coffee/tea/snacks, record player and books, and children’s toys! One night we had 5 adults and a 3 year old, plus our aunt and uncle dropped in for dinner and we had a lovely cozy visit. I can’t say enough about the kids toys, our daughter was so happy to explore something new and such an unexpected amenity.
