Good to know before you book: This is a raised/split-level home.

Guests who prefer to avoid stairs may want to keep this in mind.

About the host

Hosted by Carrol Gatlin

Host profile image
Our family has always enjoyed the entertainment style and comfort of this home. After 20 wonderful years, we decided it was time to bring it into the 21st century with thoughtful upgrades and modern touches. As our children have grown older, we've realized it's the perfect time for us to explore more of the world.

Included in the photo is one of the exchange students we've had the pleasure of hosting over the years—just one example of the many special memories made here.

Now, we're offering our home for rent, hoping it brings as much joy to others as it has to us, while we set out to discover the beauty of other countrysides.
