We had a very wonderful day. Christine was an excellent host and a communicated with her both by phone and text and she was extremely accommodating and everything. The beds were very comfortable in the house was extremely clean and well kept. Did get to enjoy the hot tub which was wonderful even though the weather was extremely cold while we were there. Hope to stay there again in the future. And would recommend this to anyone looking to stay in the Spencer area.

About the host
Hosted by Christine DeMey
We are both from Iowa, but now live in Omaha. We love coming to this home to get away from the big city and enjoy the solitude of this home. We rescue beagles and have several of our own. I love yoga and my husband loves anything outdoors - hunting, fishing and gardening. We plan to retire to this home because we love the area.
Why they chose this property
We love going to the lakes and want to retire to this home.
What makes this property unique
We are close to everything, but in a more secluded area with a large yard and privacy. Our saltwater hot tub is a great way to unwind after a long day.
