Place was nice but there were ants all over the kitchen counter. Cleanliness was subpar. Looks like guests had left and the bare minimum was done to prepare for us. Beds were very comfortable. Hot tub was nice.

Our stay was exactly what we needed. The hot tub in the secluded backyard was awesome in the evenings. The fire pit was relaxing and stocked with wood. Pool table was a hit with the kids and had tournaments on going trough out our stay. There was simple supplies stocked which was nice as I forgot scranwrap and ran out of baggies. House was very clean and tidy. It was a nice drive to all our hiking plans. Reached out to host with a question and got a quick response. The house was also made available way before our check in time. All in all a great experience. Would stay agian.
