We had a nice stay at the house! The space was very clean and had extra towels, blankets, etc. However, we were disappointed that the listing mentioned having coffee - and there were 4 coffee makers on site! - but no coffee available in the house. It didn't quite make sense for us to buy K-cups when we don't have a Keurig to go home to. Also, the TV controls were inconsistent and we had to leave the TV on when it wouldn't turn off. Similar with the fireplace. The heated floors were not working either - we tried following the instructions provided but weren't able to get those going.

If you review the listing thoroughly this time you’ll notice nowhere in there does it state coffee is provided. You mentioned 4 coffee makers I believe where we only provide a coffee maker which requires cone filters as I explained to you prior to your stay and at that time reminded you that WE DO NOT provide coffee. Additionally it’s become common that guest switch the master switch in error and mess up the functionally of the fireplace. Also not uncommon for guests to hit random buttons on the tv remote and create an issue but often Resolve it themselves

The house is in the perfect place, it close enough to town where it’s not a bad drive but at the same time it’s very isolated and quiet

Amazing getaway

Wouldn’t change one thing about this place. Absolutely wonderful and we’re already talking about next year. We had a tornado warning at 5am and that with the wind was a little concerning, but other than the brief 5am storm we had absolute perfection and peace.
