About the host
Hosted by Mindy
My husband and I enjoy wildlife photography and traveling. As we enjoy different lodging experiences, we take mental notes of what "works" and try to translate that feeling in our short term rental.
Why they chose this property
We have lived on this property for 12 years. In 2019, we converted an existing building to become a short term rental. The Twig is situated very close to our 1/4 acre pond. If you're lucky you will see deer and other wildlife, as well as water fowl that come to visit. Our hope is that visitors will enjoy a comfortable "slow down" for a few days. Evening hours spent around the fire pit seem to be a favorite of our guests.
