Our group of 16 had a wonderful experience staying at this clean, comfortable, well-appointed home in the woods. We cooked all our meals in the awesome kitchen and had more than enough dishes, glasses, silverware plus every kitchen tool we needed. The kitchen was truly the most thoroughly stocked of any rental home we’ve stayed in. The host was wonderful to communicate with and solved our minor issues promptly (for ex, delivered a new coffee maker to replace a cracked carafe). The neighborhood was very quiet and full of wildlife. We really enjoyed watching all the deer who were surprisingly not afraid of humans. They wandered up close to us, bedded down along the driveway at night, nursed their fawns in sight, etc! We also had some bear activity several nights during the week, and as we packed up to leave, we caught a sighting as the bear waltzed through the yard! Our only small disappointment during our stay was that the private beach was small, very busy, and not easily walkable. We walked to it our first evening just to scope it out. It was a hilly walk without sidewalks and over a somewhat busy road. A bit too much for walking to with little ones and all your beach stuff. We ended up not using it, but we did go to the gorgeous beach within Hickory Run State Park. All in all, we had a really wonderful trip and would highly recommend that other large groups stay in this great home!
