Wonderful Fall Foliage Weekend Stay

We had a great long weekend with peak foliage enjoying the beautiful decor inside and out, playing croquet with colorful leaves surrounding us, visiting the various quaint towns, and going to the Elephant Trunk flea market and farmers markets. Kids loved the Pac-Man etc video games. Dan was very responsive and helpful. We hope to be back!

A place that has everything.

This house has been set up so well. We really enjoyed our stay. The beds are comfortable it was like being in my own bed. House was extremely clean. The games downstairs we all enjoyed. The house was so well put together. I have used many houses on VBRO and this has to be one of my favorite. The owners were so nice and helpful we got lost and he stayed on the phone with us until we made it to the house. We were all a little stressed by than and he made us calm down and laugh. The directions are good trust Waze it takes you right there the construction signs are confusing which is explained in the directions.

A most gorgeous home

This is the country home I wish I had, and stepping in, it felt just like that: very welcoming, EVERYTHING we could possibly need located where I would logically expect to find it. By far the most gorgeous house I have ever rented in a decade on VRBO. The house was spotless, decorated with perfect taste, and so comfortable: great beds, soft linens. It was 7 of us yet we all our space. The grownups enjoyed the shade of the huge umbrella outside while the kids spent $15 worth of quarters at the air hockey table (please note that the quarters were provided by our host and that the game is only 25 cents, so yes, they liked it a lot!). We went to Quassy park with the kiddos, another huge hit as well, and melted s'mores at night. This was a heavenly parenthesis in our busy lives, we look forward to renting this beautiful house again soon, could not have had a better stay!

The perfect getaway

This house has something for everyone! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and only wished we could have stayed longer. The house is immaculate, is fully stocked with anything you could need and beautifully appointed. The beds are comfortable and there are plenty of extra linens and towels. The entire property is so private and quiet it makes for the perfect country getaway! Our host was so gracious and accommodating and we hope we can return again the next time we are in the area!
