The owner is very accessible and has a wealth of information about the area and property. The home is very well maintained-and a little off the beaten path-which is definitely part of its charm.

Had a sister’s weekend in this gorgeous and very comfortable house. It exceeded all of our expectations, and my sister is rather picky! Highly recommend.

We absolutely loved this place. It was comfortable and clean with all the amenities anyone would need. It was a short drive to peddlers village and other area attractions. We only stayed one night and did not get to use the amazing kitchen but it was so well equipped… we could have easily cooked any meal there. It was a a beautiful place and we would recommend it to anyone.

Excellent!
The property was great! Communication with host was almost immediate. The king size bed was so comfortable my friend is going to look into getting one for herself. Plenty of room, comfortable furniture, great views and close to the things we wanted to do. If I could retire and live here tomorrow, I would!

I booked a property through Expedia for six guests to visit Sesame Place. Upon arriving around 7:50 PM, the host told us the property was already occupied. We wasted an hour driving back and forth, plus a six-hour round-trip drive home, and lost our entire second day at the park. I’m requesting a full refund and additional compensation for the stress, wasted time, and ruined plans for our group.
