I’ll be honest…I didn’t have great expectations before arriving. We arrived after dark, the house felt a little stuffy. Woke up the next morning to the most beautiful view! Breeze blew away the “stuffiness”, deer showed up…turtles….blue heron. It was a real beautiful scene. Quiet. Everything we might possibly need was provided. The property is outstanding and the host is a very attentive person. He went above and beyond to accommodate an extra night for us. Highly recommend!

Pleasant place to stay and even look out the window

The property has a sunroom off the kitchen that overlooks the pond and flowing stream. We ate our meals there as we looked at ducks landing on the pond, a wild turkey walking by and a young Fox that played around the pond for over an hour.We came to see my sister-in-law and brought her back to the house to enjoy the view and pleasant surroundings.We were thrilled with the experience. I even videoed the Fox and sent it to the owner.

About the host

Hosted by John McKenney

Host profile image
Hello, I am the forth generation of my family to live in this area. I am an avid hiker, naturalist, wildlife enthusiast, and truly enjoy all the things outdoors.

Why they chose this property

This property is part of my family's original farm purchased in the late 1800's. My parents built the house their selves in the 1950s (hence the name Cynthia's place). It is an absolute gem of a location and I want to share it with others who also appreciate nature and wildlife.

What makes this property unique

The secluded location has fantastic views of the mountain and pond in the back yard on the 25 acre estate. Everyday provides for something new to see: the blue heron fishing at the pond, hawks circling over head, turkeys traveling through the back yard, deer at dusk or dawn, or just the clouds floating over the mountain.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
