This was a VERY charming home. It was definitely a home away from home. My family and I had a comfortable stay. My infant grandson slept all night as if he were home. Will stay again and recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

The kitchen was well stocked and roomy enough for multiple people to cook and hang out. The neighborhood was quiet. We saw dear, and my dog had a great time enjoying the front porch. We made use of the first-aid kit provided. There were matches for the outdoor chimeneya but nothing to strike them with, though we did find a lighter in a kitchen drawer.

Nice and quiet

We enjoyed our stay. The place was neat and clean and because it was out from town a bit it was very quiet and private. I would add that the beds are a little high so if you're older or have mobility limitations, this might be an issue for you to consider. The kitchen table was a perfect place for us to play games and eat meals. We only had 2 cars, but the driveway could easily hold 3 cars if you've got a larger group. Overall, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend it to others.

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth Dutcher

Host profile image
I am a retired teacher of 31 years. Happily married with 3 grown children. I live anything outdoors and water related! I was born in the 60’s and experienced the best decade the 80’s. I graduated from UMHB and was a Kilgore Rangerette.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is older with a small community. The houses are spaced out often with 1-3 empty lots. This provides a lot of privacy. There are plenty of deer and birds that wander the property. Because there are no streetlights, the evening sky is free of light pollution and if clear you can see every constellation!

What makes this property unique

The house has a large porch to enjoy morning coffee. It is close enough to town yet away from the crowds on the weekends. There is plenty of area to park a trailer with ATV’s or a boat
