Beautiful, Comfortable Place

My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay. Debi was an excellent host. She was very welcoming. We had fresh eggs from her chickens, blueberries and juice for breakfast. Her property is absolutely beautiful with gardens to walk through. We will definitely book with her again! Thank you!

Great Location

Debi, the hostess, is so very accommodating and thoughtful. Checking in and out was a breeze. Necessary items were thoughtfully placed in case something was forgotten. I think my favorite thing was walking my dog and hearing the birds sing.

Amazing Apartment

Absolutely charming suite in the mountains. One of the increasingly rare "original P2P Homestays", you could really feel the love Debi has for sharing her space and the location. Our two year old husky was very excited as well. Will definitely stay again in the future.

Wonderful, relaxing cottage

My husband and I had a wonderful couple of days at Debi’s lovely mountain cottage and gardens. The pictures really do not do it justice and Debi was delightful to work with from the day we booked and throughout our stay. All the little extras she added for us were so appreciated and made us feel special. . Thank you so much, Debi!

Great Little Getaway with Beautiful Views!

I was here for a festival in Cashiers. This was the perfect little place to come home to every night. The host was very communicative. Would definitely love to stay here again!

Lovely spot in the mountains

Debi’s place was beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice. The porch is amazing and the grounds are gorgeous. Debi is a lovely host and it’s clear she cares about her guests. I highly recommend her place!

Hummingbird Sanctuary

Debi is an amazing host with a gift of hospitality. Opened fridge to find eggs from her chickens, OJ, fruit, cold water and homemade hummingbird loaf, delicious! Mornings were spent on the porch, sitting in the swing, with coffee in one hand an a book in the other; enjoying the peace, quiet, and solitude, even had a hummingbird visited one morning. If you are looking for rest and relaxation check out Hummingbird Hill, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Debi.

Exactly what we needed

Debbie was awesome. She gives you specific instructions on the location, pay close attention to the details (the gps took us their fine), but being that far up in the mountains cell service is spotty, so the driving instructions are valuable. Room was great, clean and exactly what we needed. Would stay at again. Communication was top notch. Thanks Debbie.

Relaxing getaway in the woods

Our stay was brief but very relaxing. The space is private and well appointed with a full kitchen and king size bed. The TV could be a little larger but we really didn’t watch it anyway. I would recommend this location and would come back again.

Peaceful and rejuvenating

My dog and I stayed for a week while my kids were at a nearby camp. The space is thoughtfully arranged and the furniture is so comfortable. The bed was especially comfy. There isn’t much noise from the main house upstairs so it seems to be very well insulated. The cool mountain air meant we had the windows open most the time and it was perfect. Debi’s gardens are extraordinary. We enjoyed walking her garden paths and the nearby country lanes. We saw so many animals and plants and really enjoyed the beautiful surroundings. I spent most of my day reading on the porch which had a few different comfortable sitting spots. Debi was a delight as well. She was so gracious and kind. When I needed something, Cashiers was a beautiful 25 min drive away. I mostly brought food precooked, and was glad I did. There is only a cooktop and no oven. But that is sufficient for a week. I really could not have asked for a better place and I hope to come back again next summer.
