I enjoyed our stay at this location. It’s in a nice location and is very quiet. The owner was very professional and responsive. The location is perfect for pets as there is plenty of green space. The only drawback is that there is no guest parking at the location and you share the location with guests below.

We had a great stay. The house was just what we needed. Great location close to everything. Very comfortable with everything we needed such as iron, ironing board and great washer/ dryer. My wife and I were completely comfortable and totally relaxed. We plan to come back to the area and will definitely stay here again.

My fiance and I stayed at this location for 4.5 days while we toured areas to move to. The facilities were clean and inviting, the kitchen had most everything we needed to make breakfast and lunch. We appreciate the easy check in process and location to all. My only suggestion is to fix the handle on the storm door as it was very difficult to open and seemed to be coming loose. Otherwise, I highly recommend this for those coming to the area.

This is the upper floor of a quiet home that sits back off of a busy road. It has a deck and sun room with views of rabbits, songbirds and a resident red-shouldered hawk. The place was clean and had all the basics we needed for a four-night stay (including cooking essentials). We didn't need to communicate with Pamela much, but when we did, she was prompt to respond. We'll be back.

About the host

Hosted by Pamela Fox

Host profile image
We've always loved southern hospitality and we simply love taking care of our guests

Why they chose this property

We renovated this 1960s farmhouse and made it a perfect spot for gathering, as well as quiet reflection. We removed and added walls, added a back deck, made the basement into a full living space and so much more. It is now one of our family's favorite places to get away and make memories. We hope it will soon become one of your favorite places too.
