Quiet property

Property was as advertised. It was in a secluded and quiet area. Close enough to town to get thing but far enough to be by yourself. Check in/out was easy and the property had just about everything we needed. We were not able to enjoy the outside area due to weather but it looked wonderful. I would recommend this property and would stay there again when I. The area.

Great place for a family to relax

This was a perfect place for my family to gather with our soldier son. The house feels very homey. They thought of everything including labels so you dont have to hunt for the right light switch or cabinet. The property is spacious enough for a lot of activities with a lot of privacy. I will book this again in the future.

Delightful home away from home

First time renter. Was everything I imagined it to be and then some. Very clean, roomy, very comfortable. Hot tub was a plus! Everything was labeled, didn't have to look for anything. Very quite neighborhood. Loved the screened in porch. Got to see hummingbirds right in front of us. Definitely plan on coming home I mean coming here again! Wonderful owners. Thank you Ken & Wife!

Hidden Gem!

This was our first experience with VRBO and it was NOT disappointing! The owners provided a beautifully maintained home. Extremely clean and everything was clearly labeled. They provided extras like coffee, shampoo, and dish/laundry soap that we were not expecting. So that was a very nice surprise. There were lots of games, puzzles, and movies provided as well. Everything was in working order and we had no issues. I would highly recommend staying here and look forward to booking our next visit! Thank you so much for opening up your home, Ken and Penny!

Very well kept semi-private property with nice hot tub for relaxing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend away in this very clean and well kept house. Owners are very thoughtful with all the extras from a variety of k-cups to laundry pods for convenience. Only negative thing I could possibly say is that I feel it should be listed as a guest house and clear that it's not a private house. Windows in the main area of the house as well as the hot tub can be seen from the owner's house. While it was not an issue for us it was a little bit of a shock when pulling in to find the owner's house so close and lacking privacy.

Awesome place to stay

I have been traveling regularly with work for over 20 years. This year alone I have stayed 10 times in rental homes for work and pleasure. This was the first time I had ever rented a property where the owner was onsite and must admit I was a little apprehensive. However, my concerns were completely unfounded as Penny and Ken were wonderful to deal with and this home has it all Everything is designed to enhance your stay from plenty of pots and pans in the kitchen to ample linens including beach towels for the jacuzzi At every turn you can see the owners efforts and thoughtfulness to make your stay better. Plenty of coffee pods on hand, laundry products, soap and lotions. Something that is exceptional is the abundance of tv channels available without having to pay for them. A gas grill with an extra propane tank and a great covered fire pit area stocked with wood, fire starter and everything you need The location was great as well because you felt like you were in the middle of nowhere but were actually 10 minutes from a small grocery store and HomeGrown a nice little local restaurant 20 minutes from Southern Pines where there is a quaint downtown. Shopping area and larger retail outlets nearby Thanks so much for a wonderful weekend away Joe

Country Living

My son and I enjoyed our stay at the Krause house. Pictures are exact. Very clean home. Love the card games (ie. I was a champion playing "old Maid") and the old time movies was a plus (i.e. enjoyed seeing Andy Griffin movies, Ever After). The posted Biblical scriptures was an added bonus. Thanks Mrs. Penny for the peanut butter cookies!! Couldn't eat because I have a gluten sensitivity.

About the host

Hosted by Ken and Penny Krause

My wife and I have lived here for 17 years and love the home we created. Penny loves seeing, quilting, and crafting, and I love working and building. We both come by hosting naturally as we managed a hotel way back in the day!

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it is quiet and feels semi remote while still being a 10 minute drive to the grocery store.

What makes this property unique

Our property has a gorgeous front and backyard which we love! Plenty of room to listen to nature, lay in the sun, or bird watch. Such a peaceful spot!
