About the host
Hosted by Reid
Hi! I’m Reid, full-time mom of four, part-time detective (Agatha Christie trained), and enthusiastic cook/baker who somehow manages to keep flour off only some of the kitchen surfaces. When I’m not wrangling kids or perfecting a new recipe, you’ll probably find me watching a mystery series and trying to solve it before the characters do. I love creating welcoming spaces where guests can relax, unwind, and enjoy the same sense of comfort and warmth. I’m excited to share that feeling with you!
Why they chose this property
You’ll have full run of the cabin during your stay, all bedrooms, bathrooms, the modern kitchen, cozy living room, sunroom, and the outdoor areas, including the backyard, grill, hammocks, and fire pit. Settle in, spread out, and make yourself at home! Parking is easy and available right on the property. Just a quick note: the basement, middle closet on the second level, and garage are owner-only areas and will remain locked during your stay.
