Just what we needed...

Pete and Darlene have a wonderful home that we thoroughly enjoyed. It was quiet and peaceful. They gave some excellent recommendations of places to visit as well. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the decor brought me back to my childhood. I laughed as I remembered growing up with many of the items and some I still have today. The view is amazing but even more so at night with the lights all a glow. Thank you both for sharing your wonderful little bungalow with us.

Perfect Retro Bungalow

Decor was true to form of the Retro vibe; perfect for two people and VERY dog friendly. The home was clean and well-stocked for the 5 days we were there. Location was private and quiet, on a creek sided steep ravine with a wonderful view. Great hosts who were very responsive. Loved this listing!!

That the view was spectacular is an understatement. A babbling brook on either side of the property. What a mountain getaway.

Restful Retro Cabin

Our stay at this cozy cabin was great. The retro decor was really cute and brought back memories of our childhood. Everything was clean and comfortable. We loved sitting on the back deck, listening to the creek and looking out at the beautiful view of the trees and mountains. We didn't have to worry about our dog since she could walk freely in the fenced in yard and also on the fenced in deck. As we were leaving, my husband said "This trip was just exactly what we needed".

Best Stay EVER!!!!!!

Oh my goodness! There is not enough words to describe our stay at this little piece of heaven! From the moment we walked in, it was like a step back in time! It took me back to my mamaw's house when I was a little girl. So calming and peaceful. I wish I could have stayed forever! Everything was so neat and tidy, and clean as a whistle! The decor was so thought out and really represented the "retro" vibe! And the view........ wow! Just WOW! The owners were AMAZING and so thoughtful! The afternoon we checked in, there were storms moving in and it was very windy and foggy. Because of this, the owners reached out to us to make sure we arrived safely, and I thought this was so sweet and caring and honestly made me feel more like family than a guest! Like I said before, I cannot say enough about the whole experience! Would recommend staying here in a heartbeat and can NOT wait to come back!!!

A peaceful Bungalow

We throughly enjoyed our relaxing stay in this cozy vintage bungalow. We didn’t have the opportunity to spend a lot of time outside relaxing as it was windy and chilly but, the outdoor area did look very appealing. Bed was really comfortable, kitchen a joy to cook in and having the coffe and oatmeal offered was a nice surprise. IF I had to leave one suggestion. A larger trash can in the kitchen and or maybe bear proof cans outside. We always cook our breakfast when away and bring take out back because of traveling with our dog. We never leave her alone in a strange home. Needless to say, we have a bit of trash that will accumulate for almost a week. Highly recommend this lovely property.
