Loved the privacy in the country but close to the event we were attending. The house was clean and cozy. The hosts were great with communication as well. Will definitely stay here again!
We really enjoyed our stay. Our kids have grown and are living their their own lives. This weekend offered an opportunity for us to get together and your house fit the bill. Wonderful home with beautiful views. The wife wants to come back.
