Great Gorge Getaway - Gran terraza y patio - Vistas al río - $ 869 / semana

Wonderful! Look forward to hosting you again.

Thank you so much. I am so happy that you enjoyed your time here, the property, and that everything worked out well!

Such a pleasure meeting you; and so glad that you enjoyed your time here :) Look forward to the next time - and hopefully there will be some fresh figs next year too.

Awesome! I'm so glad you liked it here, and really look forward to seeing you both again. Aloha, Denise

Thank you so much for your review and I am so sorry that your stay was disappointing. With now using instant booking and the automated acceptance, I had no chance of conveying that I stay in the garden studio below - which I have always done. This has happened with one other guest also and I am very sorry for this slip in communication. I have now amended the description to reflect this. I also apologize for the 'random man and his dog'. My yard/garden helper came by unannounced. I also did not know he was there. Regarding the grill, unfortunately there was a mishap (thank goodness not serious) - so I am in the process of procuring an electric grill. I would like to offer you a 50% discount on another 3-day visit next season; as it is important to me that you have a wonderful vacation.

I'm so happy you enjoyed your 'vacation close to home'. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you both and look forward to seeing you again for another one!

Thanks Forrest! I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Those trains...for some it's nostalgia and they love them...for others...not so much. Hope to be able to meet you next time you visit the area :)

Marie it was such a pleasure hosting you and your family. I sincerely hope that we have a next time and I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay here!

Hi Rebecca, I'm so happy that you enjoyed your stay here. We certainly did have a heat wave as well... The large 'cooler' in the living room is actually a high end AC. I'll see what I can do to improve things for the next time!

Hi Ian! It was a pleasure hosting you. I'm so glad you guys had a good time and that your brother could go out and play in the wind :)

Hi Brooke! It was great having you. I was lucky to have the time away from work to be able to be in the garden studio while you were visiting. Really wished that I could live here the whole Summer. So happy that you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you next year!

Thank you so much for the review. The trains do go through and definitely make a sound! Other guest reviews have also mentioned the trains; as I have also in response to them. I want to sincerely apologize for not clearly communicating that I was staying in the garden studio suite (completely separate from the rest of the house) during your stay. Because I started using the automated booking system, it didn’t give me a good way to highlight that in advance; thus it wasn’t made as obvious as it should’ve been. A friend did visit for a short while on my private patio and I’m truly sorry that you heard the voices. I have now edited the proper description to clearly stated that the host may be staying on site. Regarding ants; summertime does attract sugar ants, and it is very important not to leave anything(especially anything sweet) in the open and on the counters. Having said that, fresh ‘ant hotels’ have been purchased to keep things in check. I did ask several times if everything was OK and whether you needed anything. It would have been very much appreciated if concerns had been voiced then. Even in writing would have worked just fine! As mentioned to you in an email, there were other places I could have stayed. It is Truly Important to me that my guests have an amazing time. I very much appreciate your feedback. It helps me make sure I communicate details more clearly, and well ahead of time.

Hi Mary! It was a pleasure meeting you, and I'm soooo happy that you had a wonderful time and that it was great for your parents also. Hope to see you again. All my best, Denise

Hello! Thank you so much for your review. I am so sorry that I failed to let you know about the couple that was downstairs in my suite. I was doing friends of a friend a favour and It was very last minute. Regarding internal access from downstairs - there is a door lock latch upstairs so that there is no internal access (unless it is kept open by you). Regarding the shower: Unfortunately, I know that the shower is out of plumb. The fellow that installed it didn’t take into account that it’s an older house and did not level it accordingly. I will see if I can somehow have that 'fixed' without having to rip it out. Regarding ants: I have never had complaints about ants in the living room & I will take remedial action right away. Having said all that, I would like to reimburse you $100 for the lack of communication and your troubles . Again thank you for your feedback - it is much appreciated.

Leela - Thank you for a most wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure meeting you and I'm so happy that you enjoyed your time here. Your energy is really something to appreciate and I sincerely hope that we cross paths again. All my best to your up coming travels and adventures!....maybe Maui next?! Would love to have you visit.
