The whole house and outdoor areas were amazing. Spacious and fun. The inside of the house was ample and many different areas to hang out and chat and play games. The washer and dryer with the soap and dryer sheets were much appreciate. Tom the host was very nice and quick to get back to me. 20/10 experience. I hope to come back next year.
It was a lovely setting, nice and relaxing. We really enjoyed our stay. House was clean and was very surprised that the kitchen and baths were well stocked with everything you need to cook and shower.
We had a great time at this house. It was clean and comfortable with plenty of games / things to do for our two little boys. The beds were comfy with plenty of extra pillows, blankets, nice towels, sheets, toilet paper, paper towels, spare ziplock bags, I could go on but you get the picture. A lot of thought went into making this place comfortable inside and out. The garage was nice to have. The location is secluded yet close to groceries and restaurants. Proximity to the springs was perfect, we went to 6 different springs and had a blast. Communication was excellent.
House is amazing as is the outside area around it. Tons of room and lots of different places for different groups to hang out in the house. Plenty of extra towels and linens. Host very quick to respond.
A perfect location for proximity to river access without being in the hustle/bustle of river traffic. Serene property, impeccably clean, well laid out with lots of room and owner has taken care of all details for your stay. The pool is an additional high-light!
The property was wonderful, the pool was perfect, the backyard had games and the fire pit for snores and hanging out. We saw lots of deer. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing place to stay!
The host thought of everything. The property is TurnKey ready. Just bring your bathing suit and enjoy yourself! There's plenty of space, lots to keep your crew entertained, and close to the spring head when you want to head out.
This home was very clean and comfortable. It was pretty close to the Rainbow River and K.P. Hole for swimming.
I think others will enjoy their stay as well.
Great location. Lots of deer that would come right up to the backyard. Very clean & accommodating. Cozy atmosphere inside & outside. Owners definitely take pride in the care of this property to make your experience a memorable one! We will absolutely be back! Very close to beautiful Springs to swim & kayak.
This is actually my family’s second stay at this property because we had such a great time for the Forth of July. It is located closely to all of the best local attractions but it is still private and quiet. The pool is always a hit and the home and property are clean and well equipped for a great long weekend. We will definitely be back!
My family and I had an amazing stay. The pool and outdoor space was awesome for hanging out and very private. The house is clean and comfortable and the pictures don’t do it justice. We will definitely be booking this home again.
