Clean, Relaxing Getaway

The property was clean. The location was private and beautiful - a great getaway for my wife and me. We were only there 2 nights, but it was restful and enjoyable. Communication from the owners was great. We would not hesitate to book there again.

Excellent Stay

The property was very clean and set in such a peaceful atmosphere. The house was far enough from the city to be peaceful but close enough to a lot of amenities to be very convenient! The Host was also very communicative and very nice. I highly recommend this property.

Sweet country house

I rented this house for my family while we were attending an event nearby. We were gone most of the time, but this house provided a great place to rest. Check-in was easy. It was clean and quiet, well supplied. The beds were comfortable. We would definitely go back.

So clean and comfortable!

This is probably the cleanest property I have ever stayed at. Every nook and cranny was clean and to perfection. The MCM vibe was awesome and the place is much nicer than the pictures appear. So many nice little treats for my family to enjoy. And also little games for my small ones to play with. We loved the back porch and although we didn't see deer we sure liked looking for them. My loud family would probably never find deer! Thank you for your beautiful Hospitality in the country we can't wait to come back!

Wonderful 5 days

We had a great time….we could not figure the coffee pot out at all so had to use the Kuric, and the tv was hard to figure out…we had a lightbulb burn out and it was replaced right away…we sure enjoyed the back porch and had a fire out there the first night…very nice.
