High quality house in peaceful setting

My wife and I, plus our four boys were very happy with our weeklong stay. The listing description and photos are accurate- this is a lovely house. The owners clearly have a high standard, as there was nothing subpar, from the kitchen, to the outside, to the bathrooms and bedrooms. It was so nice to come back to after a long day! The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The natural setting is very pleasant, facing fields, peaking through the tall trees. You do feel away from it all. Be aware that it really is a one car sized road to get to the house with some tight turns. It goes to a dirt road in one section. The driveway is also quite steep, be careful to stay to the left when backing out. It took a little getting used to on the first days, and we bottomed out on the right side of the driveway. The owners were very responsive to our messages and resolved some minor issues quickly. Pleasent and professional in their communication. We would definitely stay again!
