We had a great time staying at the property for my son's 5th birthday. Our boys and friends boys loved the pond, even though it was to cold to catch anything. The boys enjoyed just casting out into the pond. On our second day, we got to watch the pond freeze over, as it got colder, and we could see it freeze during the day.
The porch was our favorite place. The house has some amazing lighting on the creek that runs by the porch that makes for great ambiance, lighting and rushing water. The adults enjoyed this spot when the kiddos went to sleep. The kiddos enjoyed making smores on the porch. The house had the cutest little nook that had some blocks already there for the boys to play with.
As other reviewers mentioned the rooms may seem small, but we had two families in the house and felt like we had plenty of room. The owner is very responsive and helpful with any questions, even left a gift certificate for Todd Merchitile. We let boys pick out a sweet treat, and puzzle. It is right down the road from the house, the baked goods were great.
We also enjoyed walking around the park at the end of the road, very serein and beautiful. An easy walk for our kiddos who ranged from 2 - 5 years old.
The only thing that I would have changed about our stay is I would have brought paper plates. So, we didn't have to wash dishes as there isn't a dishwasher. But wasn't a big deal.
If you are looking for a home that is surrounded by nature, this is a great place. The sweet neighbor dog might come and visit too, who has a collar that says don't feed, which we got a good laugh at!
