This is a lovely property, particularly if you have kids. The pool is the perfect size and well maintained. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful, it’s so nice to see the wildlife throughout the day. It’s also a great base for the local area, it’s far enough away to be quiet but also close to town. The hosts are lovely and very quick to respond and help in any way they can. Highly recommend!

This was our first VRBO we normally book hotels. What a wonderful surprise. The house is beautiful and deceiving. The host was gracious and always available. The house has everything you need the beautiful stream in the morning was perfect. We made wonderful memories and were lucky enough to meet Charlie and his two beautiful dogs. We sat by the fire-pit and barbecued making priceless memories. I hope we can come back soon. So much to do on the property. We just didn’t have enough time.

This is our second stay at Cheryl and Charlie's beautiful property. It's truly a getaway, situated in beautiful countryside with a pool (open seasonally), hottub, and screened in pavilion. Plenty of space for up to 6 people, with 2 full baths and 3 bedrooms. The common area has great views of the property and is fully stocked, including muffins/fruit for breakfast. Highly recommend!
