About the host

Hosted by Alice Lumbard

Host profile image
We're Doug and Alice, originally from Illinois. We missed our creek property and slower lifestyle so we moved into our tiny vacation home.

Why they chose this property

We built this separate structure to host our family and friends. We think our boulder filled wild brook trout stream is something special so we decided to share it with guests who want to unplug, enjoy adventure (just getting here!), and nature.

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

What makes this property unique

You just can't beat our creek! The rushing water, the solitude of the forest. 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!
