Very well maintained property. Had everything we needed for our summer vacation. Lots of room for everyone. The kids loved the pool at the resort and then also the beaches. The adults enjoyed playing pickleball and visiting Short's and Bee Well Mead & Cider. Close to everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

Great stay for families and big groups

The chalet was clean and tidy. The air conditioner came in handy over the excessive heat warning. Quiet area and the checkout list was easy to follow. The host was easy going and was fast to reply to questions. Thank you so much for a great stay!

Annual Family Ski Trip

This is a fantastic house to stay in during your vacation to the Shanty Creek area. It’s clean, spacious, and has a well stocked kitchen. We were in want of nothing! Kathy Mantey is a fantastic hostess, and a great communicator. Our family would love to return to this home next year.

Gorgeous Home

This was a gorgeous home in a beautiful nature setting. We saw multiple deer right from the deck. Great size house for our large family. The second living room with kitchenette really came in handy. You just can't beat having three bathrooms. Awesome kitchen too. We all had a blast. Will definitely stay here again.

Newly Updated and Very Spacious

A beautiful home with an easy check-in process. Kathy was extremely communicative throughout the whole stay. There was more than enough space for the ten of us. A stones throw from the Pelicans Nest and all Shanty Creek has to offer, yet tucked back on a quite dead end road.

Beautiful woodland home.

The property owners were very understanding and supportive, regarding our experience. The house had everything, including a backup generator that came inn handy. If you like seeing deer and turkeys outside the the kitchen window, this the place for you. Thank you Manteys...
