Guest Comments 2019:
June 2019 We had a lovely time at your home. My three boys and I loved exploring and being connected to a nature landscape in a way we aren’t able to in the city. Your home was a safe and inviting space for our family, thank you!
July 2019 We had another wonderful stay at the Thorp House! Thank you so much for your hospitality and for recommending Wilson’s Ice Cream Parlor and Fika Coffee and Bakery- loved them both! We are planning on coming back next year!
July 2019 Clean, comfortable and well equipped. We had another great week at the BD Thorp House. Thank you for your hospitality and concern. We especially appreciated your visit during the storm to make sure we were comfortable and ready.
July 2019 BD- You did it again! Your careful planning, generosity, and gracious hospitality made you our vacation hero! Were looking forward to our 5th visit soon. Were very grateful!
August 2019 This is our second year staying at this house and was just as wonderful as last time. We played outside in the huge yard everyday and I snuck in a nap in the hammock. It is such a warm and homey place. Thank you so much for all of the hospitality. Thank you for recommending the Old Post Office, we will be going back for breakfast. We are very sad to see our vacation end and we are counting the days until we come back next year. Thank you again.
September 2019 Thank you for another wonderful stay at your home! This is the second time my husband and I brought my mother and aunt to stay at your home. Everything was perfect! You thought of every detail. We look forward to staying again!
September 2019 Once again, thank you so much for letting us use your wonderful home. 5 years now and hope to keep coming back. Nice talking to you BD.
