Amazing Property away from everything

An absolutely gorgeous home in the country and still only 10 minutes from anything you need. Super clean home with an amazing rec room and incredibly responsive owner. We had an issue the day we checked in, I messaged the host and they reached out right away and did everything they could to make it right. Incredibly happy and will absolutely be staying again!

Wonderful experience

We came for a basketball tournament. There are three parents and 317 year-old girls. The house was just what we needed perfect size amenities, laundry, and even a game room for some extra entertainment plus the girls took advantage of the cornhole. The adult sat outside every morning and had coffee in a very peaceful country setting overall this was an amazing experience for us
