This home was the perfect after Christmas getaway for our family of 7! The house layout was ideal for privacy, fun and family. The creek next to the house was so relaxing and the view from the hot tub was perfect! We would definitely stay again!

This house was everything you need and more. The hosts have thought of everything - comfortable bedding, kitchen utensils/cookware, plenty of room for our family of 8. Highly recommend this property for couples or families. The entire property / inside and out - was exceptionally done and well maintained. Would love to return sometime soon.

House was beautiful- nicer than even the pictures showed. One thing we were very surprised about was that you needed to bag up your trash and drive it miles down the road to dispose of. We did reach out to the property manager who kindly told us to keep it in the garage and then they would take care of it as we did not have the room in our cars to take it out. Overall amazing and would recommend.
