About the host
Hosted by John Kratzer
My wife Linda has been friends with the previous owner Lauren for over 30 years and, we spent several family vacations at the house before Lauren decided to sell.
Our family was thrilled to be able to purchase this beautiful home from Lauren & John this past August and, as owners we look forward to many more memorable family vacations together in the Hideout.
We think your family will enjoy our home too!
