Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Linda Kobliska

We have lived in the area for all of our lives and offer this and six other guest houses in the area. We also rent traditional housing--apartments and houses.
Why they chose this property
After purchasing and starting Grandma Z's (the guesthouse that is located directly across the street), this home became available and since it makes great sense to offer families two houses in close proximity, we purchased this home!
What makes this property unique
This is a relatively large home, with full kitchens, living and dining areas on both floors. Guests like the open floor plan of the main floor when gathering larger groups of people for holidays, etc. The home has five bedrooms, each with a queen sized bed. A supply of toys and board games is kept in the closet of a main floor bedroom.
There is great pheasant and deer hunting in the area. A 25 mile plus bike trail starts four miles from this property. This community offers the benefits of small town living.
