This was by far one of the best VRBO experiences I have ever had. The apartment was lovely, and Debi went above and beyond to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. We spent a lot of time out on the deck, which makes you feel like you are hanging out in the trees. The mountain is so peaceful and quiet, except for the birds and chickens in the background. I honestly cannot say enough about how relaxing it was. I did not want to come back home and cannot wait to go back many more times in the future. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in the middle of nowhere. It was just what I needed!

Ms. Debi was very gracious & helpful. Property is nice & cozy but was a bit too isolated for me. If your looking to disconnect from the world & enjoy some alone time this is the perfect place for it.

Lovely Escape

What a wonderful, quiet retreat! The host is very kind and generously shared eggs from their chickens! Lovely garden to enjoy and relax. Nicely located not too far from town/amenities, but tucked away from the road and noise.

The gardens are of the fairytale variety. My host greeted me with a warm smile and let me know that if there was anything I needed I could simply ask- but, no need as every detail was addressed. The accommodations were charming and oh, so comfortable. Hummingbird Hill was not only the perfect place to unwind, it was balm for the soul.

Debi's place was a slice of heaven. Every photo in the ad was correct. Her gardens were exceptional & peaceful. I stayed 8 nights & could have easily booked a month. From riding horses, hiking & writing I was at total peace. Weather staying for a day or more it's totally worth it. Thank you again Debi for sharing your beautiful home with me.
