The property is beautiful in a beautiful setting! The amenities were as described and the owners tried to anticipate our every need. The house and property were immaculately clean and we did not want for anything! The deer, turkey and other wildlife were in the area daily. We highly recommend this property and will most definitely stay again!

We were very impressed with this property and would definitely stay there again when visiting family again. Was decorated beautiful, every room was very clean. The Host were very friendly, if we had a question I would text and they wood answer in a timely manner. They had all kinds of games for our grandchildren to play. The grandchildren loved just running around the property looking for deer or petting their very friendly cat.

About the host

Hosted by Gloria Korte

Host profile image
We grew up in Marlette, and like the small town feel of every day life.
I love to spend time with my family, they are a big part of our life. We have three grown children, now expanding into getting married, and relationships. We are now grandparents, love love love.
We are making some of our dreams come true, we dreamed about for so many years. We love to travel, and see what this world has to offer. It's a small world, in so many ways when you really look, and live it. Start making them happen. try to get some
I work on living healthier, one day at a time.
We have a construction Co. Dan is the local Fire Chief, and I am retired now. We are always busy with something going on.
I find it very interesting to see where everyone is coming from, too little Marlette. I love to make a good impression on your stay. Hoping you will see the love, and care we put into it. I like to connect with the guest if they are able, if its thru messages, or meeting. Just a small conversation, can make such a connection. It's the small things in life.

Why they chose this property

Dan and I built these homes in this neighborhood. We take a lot of pride, and joy of how it looks. We raised out kids here. It has a peace and calmness in the area. We love to watch the wild life around, see the deer walking up. The quietness of how it is. How close we are to town, to get something, or take care of something. We love to walk the area, swing a golf club. We like how you don't have to worry about anyone coming down the road hardly. Kids can play outside with no worry's, ride a bike. Just be a kid
Neighbors are great.

What makes this property unique

It is a peaceful quiet area. It's beautiful, feels as if you are in the country. You will probably see some deer, or other wildlife out in the AM and evenings. Kids can play outside with no worry's. Just 3/4 mile from the main light. So walking or riding distance if you wish, paved road. You'll see the cornfield & golf flag across the road in the summer. Manicured yards, and lots throughout. Just a peaceful area, with NO hustle, and bustle. A good place to really relax, and take in the beauty of the outdoors. Sit on the deck, watch the deer, bunnies, turkeys, or other wildlife around. Grill out on the deck & have some laughs. Have a campfire, make some s'mores. Go inside, put your feet up, have a glass of wine. Cozy up by the fireplace in side on those cooler times. You truly will relax, and feel very comfortable. Make some memories.
