If you have the opportunity to rent this house, I’d suggest you do it. The host is amazing, very friendly and the house is kept immaculately! The grounds are huge with plenty of things to enjoy on the property and towns are very close by to acquire whatever is needed for your stay. I noticed several state parks with lots of hiking trails, something that should be explored during your stay. A fantastic and secluded house for whatever you have in mind! Enjoy your stay, I know our group did!

This property does not disappoint!! The rooms are quiet, the beds are very comfortable. Relaxing in the sunroom with my coffee in the morning was so enjoyable! They had everything available we could ask for. The host is quick to respond. We really enjoyed the outdoor seating area and fire pit. I feel the pricing is reasonable and would definitely consider staying here again. Thank you for a truly pleasant experience!!

Beautiful property secluded in the woods with lots of fun nearby. The house has everything you need for a getaway - kitchen is fully stocked, towels and blankets abound, washer and dryer on site and plenty of room to spread out or hang together. We loved the fire pit and the hammocks were a great additional surprise. This home made for a perfect family getaway while we were in the area for a family wedding.
