Anniversary celebration

We were on vacation celebrating our 52nd anniversary. It was a perfect location. The house was very clean, nice creek behind the house down the hill. Plenty of room and easy access to all locations we planned to go. Good people to work with and easy and clear instructions to get in and out the house. Would give a five plus all around.

We absolutely loved this rental. The neighborhood was super quiet. The very very best part was the creek that ran through the back. I read beside it a couple of times. The bedroom was comfortable and the bathroom was a bit dated but had a wonderful shelf to keep everything organized.

Wonderful Escape

My daughter and I wanted a last minute getaway and we found the perfect place. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. It was hard to get out of bed in the mornings because the bedding was so wonderful. The creek running through the back was an added bonus. I would definitely stay here again.
