They thought of every detail!

We booked this last minute on our way back from Nashville TN. The house was perfect for our stay. The owner thought of every detail to make it a home away from home. Dishes, decor, bedding, toiletries, everything was top notch. We really enjoyed our time here with friends. And our littles enjoyed the property and jacuzzi tub!

Gem in the Pine Trees

We were in town for a family wedding and found this gem in the woods! The house was beautiful, very clean and the kitchen was well-stocked (more than most places we've stayed). All the mattresses and bedding were new and extremely comfortable. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.

The best!

First of all, the owner was wonderful. She kept in touch leading up to our trip and checked in with us once we arrived to see if we needed anything. The property is gorgeous and we were amazed at how clean everything was when we got there. The attention to detail is amazing- they thought of everything! We are already planning a return trip! Out of 10 I would give it an 11!

Amazing house that gets bigger as you walk through it

We had a choice to either stay in a hotel or find a house, I am glad the latter worked out the way it did. The house was very clean and well organized. The cabin design is well done, our kids really enjoyed it as well. The hot tub was great. Big compliment to the host who was flexible with our logistics, so thank you very much. Definitely coming back.

Golf Outing

The hot tub could have used a little cleaning and cleaner water, however, that was the only negative aspect of the entire property. Everything Else was exceptionally clean and the house is fully stocked with anything you would possibly want. We were down there on a golf outing, and the house was conveniently located in the middle of a half a dozen Golf courses. We will be back!

It was a beautiful property and very, very clean. I appreciated the incidentals provided, like shampoo, paper plates and cutlery, spices, and coffee. The bedrooms were nice, and the beds were comfortable. Although we only had 6 adults, there was another bedroom for two more. There was plenty of room to move around and hang out. It did rain, so we could not enjoy the deck and hot tub, but we were able to use the gas grill. Thank you so much for offering this exquisite property through VRBO. We will definitely come back and stay!

This was an amazing place. We will definitely come back. Everything was awesome. People were very nice and helpful with anything you had to ask. I believe this place will go with lots of visitors me and my family was for adults. I had my brother there from Arkansas and us from Illinois. Just wanted to thank them for everything being so great and clean. Annette
