Beautiful and secluded property. Home has lots of charm and incredibly well built. Great kitchen and outdoor space as we thoroughly enjoyed entertaining with our family. Great communication as we did encounter a few bumps and felt satisfied with the timely support.

The property and both houses were beautiful and as described. We only had one minor complaint; there was a lack of cutlery and cookware in both houses. The only other issue that we had didn't have anything to do with the either house but rather the gravel road they sit on. Cars and trucks speed up and down the road. We had multiple close calls while walking our dogs on the shoulder and grassy area across from the property. With that being said the property is beautiful and it's in a great location, we would stay here again.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for choosing to stay with us! I'm glad you enjoyed both homes and found the property beautiful and the location convenient. I appreciate you bringing the kitchen supplies to my attention. Guest feedback is helpful, and I'll take a closer look at the cookware and cutlery to make sure both homes are better equipped. I'm also sorry to hear about the speeding traffic on the gravel road. I can certainly understand your concern, especially when walking your dogs. Thank you again for sharing your experience. We truly appreciate that you would stay with us again and would love to welcome you back!

This property is stunningly beautiful! All the detail that went into the design of the property was well thought out and planned! From the carport, to the rock sidewalk, landscaping and home design/decor! The porch is where our family spent many hours so relaxing as you could here the water rushing down the stream. Would absolutely stay here again! Thanks for Sharing your home with guest!
