Hobbit House

We had a lovely anniversary in the Hobbit house. It was clean and comfortable, and we especially appreciated the heaters and the hot tub while it was snowy and cold.

Mid week getaway

The Hobbit House was every bit as charming as I hoped it would be. The grounds surrounding were just lovely. Lots of nature oriented things to do. We had a great time. The owners may want to spray inside and outside for bugs. We expected to have some insects due to the environment, but we had quite a few. Also a broom around the ceiling beams wounYY/THE ⁰0

Nice but a little chilly

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cute and romantic space, clean and well furnished. The only issue was the heat, it was not able to keep up with the cold on the evening of our arrival. The door didn't completely seal and there was a small draft. I would bring a small electric space heater if you are visiting when it will be in the 20's or colder.

The check-in and check-out process were both super easy, all the information was sent in advance for our stay and communication was excellent. We were given the option to extend our stay in advance if we wanted, there were optional add ons. Easiest process ever! The stay was amazing, everything was just as described at the Hobbit Hut! Loved our stay!

The property was quaint and remote, and it was exactly what we had hoped it would be. The time we spent was short, but we enjoyed everything from sitting outside out by the pond through the woodworking of the house. I would recommend this to anyone, and especially those who are Lord of the Rings fans!

Whimsical glamping

This cottage/cabin in the woods is adorable and my teen and I loved watching the night sky and the storms through the glass ceiling. The hot tub overlooking the pond was great.

Cozy Get Away

We had a great time at the Hobbit House! Place was clean, tidy, and smelled great! Not sure if this is typical, but firewood was placed in the fire pit ready to be started. Only downside is it was difficult to keep the bugs out.

Nice little Hobbit house

It was a cozy and clean room to stay in. Very cool architecture. The hot tub was a plus. A lot of things to see and do nearby, with a nice choice of restaurants within 15 minutes.

The house is cute property is semi secluded but has 3 other rentals within 200yards. The bed is very uncomfortable we live close so we decided to leave early after only staying one night. Impossible to keep the floor dry if raining but it is stone and doesnt hurt anything other than you can expect to have wet socks or be barefoot.

This was such a perfect place for my husband and I to get away for our anniversary. Check in was easy and the instructions were clear. The place was clean and really set up with everything that we needed. The location was gorgeous and within driving distance from a bunch of fun things to do. We would highly recommend this!

Very unique and beautiful space. Immaculately clean. However, the heater was extremely loud, keeping me awake most of the night. The substantial outdoor lighting stayed on all night and couldn't be controlled meaning the inside was quite bright and little could be seen out of the very cute roof portal While the property doesn't provide firewood, there was none to be purchased anywhere nearby in the winter, so we couldn't enjoy the fire pit. Overall a unique experience, but a poor night's sleep and a feeling that we probably over paid.
