We always travel for our boy’s birthdays that are one day apart (plus 3 years) so September is family vacation time. Upon checking in, everything was wonderful. It was a little bit chilly so I turned the heat on. After a few minutes I smelled what i thought to be rotten eggs and panicked. We called 911 and went to our car. They came, checked and cleared the house and in the meantime the host personally called me and let me know that the heater did in fact, not run off of gas or propane. Tell me how silly I felt! But she didn’t make me feel crazy at all! She was so encouraging and sweet and just very reassuring. My boys are young, 2 and 5 so I was fearful of course when I thought I smelled something off. We think that the heat had just not been turned on for a bit and it just had that smell when you haven’t used something for a while. She checked on us again the next morning to make sure everything was ok. A couple of days later one night we realized the HVAC wasn’t coming on at all. Well, turned out the drip pan was filled with water. I reached out again and she sent someone immediately and it was fixed within a couple of hours. We understand that issues happen! But how they are handled is what matters. We are more than pleased with the customer service which was above and beyond! We would stay here again for sure. My 5 year old LOVED the arcade! We love how the house is set up for kids. You will love staying here, even if an issue occurs, you are in good hands!

Beautiful Property

This home is perfect, absolutely stunning! I typically don’t book homes that allow pets but you would never know pets were allowed in this very clean and well kept home. The pictures online don’t do this home justice, it is much prettier and spacious in person than it appears in the listing. We had no problem getting in touch with someone when we had a question upon checking in even at 7:00 at night. We will definitely be booking this home again for our annual girls trip!

Annual “kids” vacation

Our kids choose a destination and activities every Labor Day weekend. This has been named the “kids” vacation and we all look forward to it each year. They are mostly adults now (oldest at 22 and youngest at 15), and 5 kids in total. The cabin was VERY clean!!!….thats first on my list! But it also has so much space and tons to do, and that’s first on their list! It was comfortable, peaceful, very well stocked, and perfect! The hosts are attentive and kind. Absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing cabin stay where you don’t have to leave to find something to do.

This place is AMAZING!!

This was by far the BEST vacation rental we have ever stayed at! The house, the decor, the property… it is all simply breathtaking. The kitchen and living area are stunning! With tall windows that let in the natural light, it is like something out of a magazine. The main bedroom and bath are spacious and comfortable. The kids absolutely loved the roomy downstairs area, with their own bedroom and full bathroom, a pool table, family room, and the coolest arcade game with over 6000 games! The hosts provide the cutest bathroom amenities, like what you would find in a luxury hotel room. The kitchen is fully-stocked, with everything you could need to prepare and enjoy a meal. The decks are massive, and overlook the stunning forrest. There are seating areas and an outdoor dining table, and the deer come right up to graze next to the house. There is a fully-fenced side yard, with a firepit and seating area, that is perfect for both people and pups to enjoy. The community has swimming pools, tennis, pickleball, basketball, fishing areas, and more! The property manager was extremely attentive and communicated with great detail. Check-in and check-out was smooth and easy. We had a wonderful stay and made some amazing memories! Thank you for sharing your wonderful home!
