Our family had a warm, welcoming stay. The home is well stocked and so comfortable. The host thinks of every detail to make the stay a one-of-a-kind special experience. Fresh flowers, snacks, games, fresh local pastries and more greeted us when we arrived. I highly recommend this home. It was perfect for my family aged 1 to 71.
I opened the front door to be greeted by this cozy comfortable living room. I love the SW decor.

Wonderful place. Immaculate and interesting. We mainly used it to sleep but if we had time to stay in the home, this is the place.

Early May wedding

Through the years I have stayed at many rental properties. This property was the ONLY one that generously supplied a useful and basic assortment of food like fresh fruit, coffee , teas and snacks. Amazing & truly appreciated!!! Their beds and linens were supremely clean and comfortable. I gave them 5 stars on everything except I do wish they had told me the basics of how to operate their alarm system before entering the home. Being from MT, I have no experience with how they work and was seconds away from setting it off. I totally understand that it is necessary; I just wish I had known about how it worked. Thank you, hosts for a wonderful weekend. It was truly outstanding!
