About the host

Hosted by Maria/Jp

Host profile image
My husband and I have been managing this property since 2016. We fell in love with it the first time we saw it and felt blessed that the former owner chose us over other competing buyers. We enjoy sharing it with our guests but we ask that they respect and treat it like their own.

We have Persian rugs in the living/dining rooms and whiter carpets in the bedrooms. We have a few plastic runners in high-traffic areas to catch any soda or coffee spills. This has happened although one of our House Rules is not to drink or eat in the bedrooms. So the runners help us and the guests from any damage issues that may ensue if we didn't have them

Why they chose this property

Read the descriptions above and below. It's a beautiful and unique property--that feels like your own home--not a rental place!

What makes this property unique

1. a very serene place to relax and enjoy nature and yourself
2. the view is so beautiful that you can relish it from many vantage points on the property
3. it's surrounded by trees and far enough from neighbors, that you'd feel like you're in your own world.
4. The sound of the river is delightful and soothing, the kind of uniqueness you don't find in most other rentals
5. You can expect to see wild turkeys, quails, and other birds roaming the grounds nearby, many of them roost on the bull pine trees in the vicinity.
6. The house is large enough that adults and children can have their own spaces
(If children are too young, make sure that the doors to the balconies are locked)
