Very beautiful location. Enjoyed the nature around the most. Absolutely loved sitting in the hot tub while the weather is cold. As for the home, a little bit more kitchen utensils are needed. Loved having the luxury of an outdoor heater to enjoy sitting out on the deck. Patio has nice new outdoor furniture. Everything else was perfect.

Thank you for such a thoughtful review. We really appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed the beautiful surroundings (and that hot tub in the cold weather is hard to beat). Great to hear you made the most of the deck and outdoor setup too. We appreciate the note about kitchen utensils and will look into adding more. You’re welcome back anytime.

Wonderful stay. We had a mini family reunion and found the house perfect for our needs. The large great room, open kitchen and dining room table accommodated 10 people nicely. The deck area is great. The hot tub was wonderful. We really needed instructions though. It took us a week to figure out how to get the pump to stay on longer than 1.5 hours at a time to heat the water. Prospective renters should know that the stairs to both the second and third floors are narrow, steep, and uneven in step heights. Anyone with hip or knee issues will find access to upper floors difficult. The enormous Master Bedroom is located at the top of the house. It encompasses an entire floor and has its own bathroom. I would suggest bringing a small coffee maker with you, if you plan to sleep in that room. The hike down to the kitchen is long and steep. The other 4 bedrooms are on the second floor. All 4 are small. There are two on each side of a hallway and each pair of rooms shares one small bathroom. The 4th full bath is on the ground floor. All the rooms have windows but all have signs posted that warn occupants that an alarm will sound if windows are opened. There is a balcony on the second floor, but it opens onto the hallway, not a bedroom. We tried opening that door for fresh air but too many bees came in that way. The house is in a perfect spot for open windows and fresh air but its rules do not permit it. Such a waste of fresh air and the electricity needed to run the ac.

Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review—we really appreciate you taking the time to share this. Glad the space worked well for your family gathering, especially the main living areas and deck. That’s exactly what we had in mind for groups. We also hear you on the hot tub instructions and layout notes—those are helpful and we’ll work on making things clearer for future guests. Really appreciate you staying with us and hope to have you back again.
