Getting to and in was the easiest!Loved the location. We all Felt peaceful and relaxed during our stay. Enjoyed sitting on the stone patio while drinking our coffee. Hosts were great, responsive, and prompt. Thank you!
This place is a hidden gem! The pictures don't do it justice! They thought of EVERYTHING as far as the amenities go and we felt at home. We will most definitely be coming back!
Just a stunning view! This is a great unique spot. We enjoyed a fire by the fire pit under the canopy of the trees and stars. Well stocked kitchen and new appliances. Had a great time!
I wish that my stay would have been longer. This property was just perfect for what I needed! Sitting on the deck/porch is so very peaceful…the creek provided a lovely place for quiet reflection and time with the Lord…plush cozy towels and bedding…a well appointed kitchen…and the host was amazing and very accommodating. We will definitely return!
Oh my! We can’t say enough good things about this home. It is wooded and feels like you are I. The middle of nowhere. It overlooks the creek and offers great outdoor sitting and fire pit. Both bedrooms have a solid wall of windows with views to die for. The central living area is well appointed and comfortable. It is so peaceful and a great place to get away. The owners were great to work with. Definitely want to return!
I wish I could give more than 5 stars! The peaceful solitude of my stay was perfect for a milestone birthday. The kitchen was ideal for vacation-level cooking/baking, the bed was super-comfy, the well-appointed bathroom was serious decadence, and the amenities (smart tv & sound) were perfect. Best of all was the finished patio where I spent most of my time, listening to the creek, herons, hawks, and songbirds. Best break I've had in years!!
This place is amazing . The home is cozy and tucked away with beautiful surroundings . The peacefulness it brings looking out the windows to see nature and th beautiful creek and the sound of it. Don’t miss out on this amazing place
First of all, BEAUTIFUL PLACE! 100% private and miles away from anything. The inside of the home so cozy and comfortable, KITCHEN was well stocked. Beds were comfy and fitted with beautiful bedding, and lots of pillows. Enjoyed our stay!
The host was very kind and thoughtful. The property was clean and absolutely beautiful. Anything you could have needed was available. Wish we were able to stay longer!!
The stay over exceeded our expectations. The home was so welcoming, cozy, and clean. The host was so helpful with any questions I had and even went above and beyond suggesting places. The surrounding was so private and relaxing as well.
