About the host

Hosted by Alice Lumbard

Host profile image
We're Doug and Alice, originally from IL. We missed our creek property and the slower lifestyle here in the backwoods, so we made our tiny vacation house into our permanent home. We built this separate glamping structure off our back deck to host our family and friends and now you!

Why they chose this property

If you're wanting to get away from the hectic life and up for a driving adventure then we're happy to have you! Our boulder filled wild brook trout stream and the peace of the stream set in the woods is something special to experience. That's why we call this home!

Want to stay longer? We also rent out “The Junction" (#1493247) - a 400 square foot tiny house downstream with full kitchen that sleeps 2, overlooking the same creek.

What makes this property unique

You just can't beat our creek! The rushing water, the solitude of the forest, and no distractions creates a wonderful night stay! The highest compliment is when guests say they don't want to leave! We welcome you to come experience small living and see why less is more!
