Wedding destination
The property is gorgeous with a pond stocked with fish. Our boys enjoyed catching and releasing small bass and sunnies. The home is immaculate, beautiful, and stocked with every imaginable thing you would need to make your stay enjoyable and worry-free. The rooms are spacious and allowed our group of 10 to spread out and do whatever we wanted to do. I highly recommend a stay at this property. You'll really enjoy it's many "perks".

Perfect place for a family wedding weekend!!
We were able to rent this property and the adjacent home offered by the same host for both the bride's family and groom's family. Each home was so well-appointed and comfortable - plenty of dishes, silverware, towels, large refrigerator, many small appliances - everything we needed. The property is lovely with the early spring gardens and pond - excellent for pre-wedding photos! We were fortunate to have beautiful weather and were able to enjoy the outside spaces as well when friends and family stopped by to visit with us during the wedding weekend. Highest recommendation and the hosts were responsive and eager to work with us.

Large Home with Lots of Gathering Spaces on Wooded Lot
Our large multi-generational family celebrated the Christmas and New Year’s holidays at this large, comfortable house. The kitchen was spacious and very well stocked, with labeled drawers and cabinets facilitating our many cooks and assistants. The front living room - with a light and simply decorated Christmas tree - and back den provided multiple gathering places. The multi-level deck outdoors had two tables with seating for at least fifteen. The hosts were very responsive by test and phone. An all around wonderful experience.
