The house was very clean and organized. Beautiful property. I thought the screened porch was included but it wasn’t. The front porch was very nice - just glad it was cooler weather and NO mosquitoes. I was attending a 3 day workshop in Williston and therefore didn’t have time to see any of the surrounding sites. This site & location were beautiful.

We’re glad to hear you found the house very clean, organized, and enjoyed the beautiful property and front porch—especially with the cooler weather and no mosquitoes.We’re also happy to hear that our location worked well for your 3-day workshop in Williston, even if you weren’t able to explore the surrounding area this time. For future reference, the screened-in porch is included in the listing, and we’re sorry for any confusion about that. We're not sure why you weren't able to access it. We truly appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back when you have more time to relax and enjoy the property and nearby sights.
Property very clean. Awesome location in a horse farm, nice to look out the window and see beautiful property with horses running around. Cool stuff to do in the area as well.

Great weekend stay! In the country and away from the 'city' noise. Loved the large porches and rockers. Comfy bed and bright new bathroom. Could not ask for more.

SCUBA training
Overall everything was top notch. There had been a storm earlier that evening that caused us not to have water the first night. It resolved the next day. Owners were generous enough to refund us the first night’s stay. Beautiful place. Less than half of a mile to Blue Grotto. Terrific location.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the location so close to Blue Grotto. We’re sorry for the inconvenience caused by the storm on your first night but are happy it was quickly resolved and that we were able to make it right for you. We truly appreciate your kind words about the property and hope to welcome you back in the future.
Not only is the outside house stunning, but so is the property. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants a quiet and scenic getaway and who want to visit nearby places like Devil's Den, Cedar Lakes Woods & Garden, and Rainbow River. The first two places are literally across the main road from the driveway and the river is about a 25-minute drive. We can't wait to come back!

My husband and I are taking “off the beaten path” trips to see towns and places that offer unique places to see. This home in Williston provided everything we needed from the country road drive into the horse farm along with the front porch sitting. The home was immaculate and comfortable with all essentials we needed. Be sure to meet Ringo the frisbee wonder dog and feed the fish at the pond behind the home. Owner was super responsive to any of our questions or needs. Home is close to Devils Den and Cedar Lakes Garden so be sure to see those places during your stay.

You're welcome back anytime for more porch sitting, pond feeding, and exploring all that Williston has to offer."

Remarkably Peaceful!
I absolutely loved this location! It was close in proximity to all things I had planned. Fun attractions and necessities are only a few minutes away. The private suite had everything I could think of and more. It was beautiful waking up in the morning and seeing the horses! Relaxing way to start my day. Also, the cleanest place I have stayed in yet. What a gem this place is! I will defiantly be back!

We loved everything about this property. Inside the cabin area was nice and comfortable. Beautiful horses on premises!It was very comfortable. The 4 star rating is because: not properly washed dirty dishes were in the cubbard. There were not enough potholders, dish towels, not even one dishcloth!A glass broke as one of my friends washed it with a sponge and cut her hand in three places.Luckily I had a small first aid kit.
