This was the coziest, most charming “home away from home” we’ve stayed at! Lauren was very friendly and answered any questions we had promptly throughout our stay. And it was obvious she put a lot of thought and time into the home for guest benefit. We hope to stay here a couple times a year!

We enjoyed a peaceful stay. Loved the decorations throughout this beautiful historic home and appreciated the thoughtful welcome items. The chickens were a fun touch! There was a hiccup with check-in, but it was eventually resolved.
