Peaceful setting, so relaxing having coffee/cocktails on the porch. We had a daily visit from a sweet cat, too. Home was clean, beds comfortable, and had plenty of kitchen necessities. Thanks for sharing your home, Rick.

The house is a nice older home with different areas that allow multiple people or groups to sleep comfortably apart from one another with enough privacy. There was an extra portable twin bed and pullout couch which made it nice for lots of girls for a sleepover. The house is a bit dated, but it was high end in the 90s for sure. Today it still has what you’ll need to enjoy your stay (and more) in the kitchen. You will be able to cook everything you would at home in this well-stocked kitchen with slow cookers, Instapot, nice knives, etc, etc. The property is beautiful and nestled in quiet woods. The outdoor deck and table area is lovely. The hot tub was not cleaned and ready for use, but the owner did come over and turn it on and shock it when we texted, however, it wasn’t an ideal situation at 8pm. I would recommend an overhaul with new towels in some areas as they were tattered and worn. For 500 per night that’s a must. Overall, easy things to fix and the house and yard are peaceful, quiet and beautiful. I would stay again- especially with a friend group or family get-together. Ps Go grocery shopping beforehand and stock up for everything to enjoy cooking in the lovely kitchen.
