Beautiful secluded home

This house was perfect for our weekend away from stress. Felt like we were wrapped in the forest in this secluded property. Everything we needed was there. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from it all.

Relax on the deck

This is a great property, and Marcus was a wonderful host. They have done a lot of landscaping since purchasing the house last fall and it was wonderful to sit on the deck. We were fortunate to have great weather except for one rainy day. As others have noted, the kitchen is small, and the dishwasher is only half size. While it was great to sleep in the loft among the trees, there is no bathroom up there, in case you have to go in the middle of the night. Also, no privacy if your family and friends are not respectful. We are planning a return visit in the fall if we can!

Holiday at the Treehouse

Our DC and Boston families met up at this beautiful house for Thanksgiving. The property is modern and pristine, and appointed with everything we could possible need. The design of the house offers forest views from every room. Great location, wonderful communications from the host, incredible decor. We hope to return in the summer! surrounding us with forest and magical snow showers.

Great tranquility

We were very happy to catching up with old friends in a peaceful setting with plenty of space to spread out. Everything was as described and would definitely keep this home in mind when we re-visit the area; if it is still available because it is for sale.

Cozy Place in the Woods

Marcus was a great host! Clear and very helpful. The pictures did not do it justice on how lovely the place is. It felt lived in but we also didn’t feel like we were intruding. The calming wood fire smell greeting us when we came in set the mood for the rest of weekend. To be frank though we didn’t feel comfortable grilling cause some of the fire guards in the grill had some rusty holes. The silver lining though was we were able to use the fire pit out back to cook some bratwurst (Highly recommend). The next day we went to town and only hung out for a bit till the cold weather motivated us to hunker back in the cabin. No one slept upstairs but I would recommend that when you cook anything in the kitchen to open the windows up there to avoid your bed smelling like the food you cooked. We WILL be coming back! Love the place and the time we had! Thank you Marcus! We also appreciate the board games provided and had lots of fun playing and relaxing!
