Hope House was the perfect place to stay during our visit from out of state for a family funeral. From the moment we pulled on to the property it was a welcoming, beautiful and restful space. All the comforts of home and more in a scenic, peaceful location. Wonderful Host, would love to return someday in happier times.

Amazing Getaway!

This little Gem was perfect for us! So peaceful and quiet! Mrs. Brenda and her husband were the best! Very friendly and accommodating! Even gave us a tour of the other house on the property! We can't wait to bring the kids up to enjoy!

Tranquility

Our family absolutely loved staying here. Tranquility only begins to describe this beautiful place. The grounds are amazing and the Hope House is a showpiece. Everything you need for respite and renewal is there and you will not find better hosts than George and Brenda anywhere. We will definitely be returning. The only reason I rated this experience as 5 is because “7” was not an option.

This is such a beautiful property and truly is a place of solitude.

The Hope House is a beautiful property. Truly a wonderful place to get away and connect. Brenda has so many special details throughout which just makes you feel welcomed . We have stayed at many properties from the city, country , treehouse etc. and I can say without a doubt the Hope House is the best property we have stayed at. Truly a special place. We can't wait to go back for a longer visit. Do not hesitate on booking this special place. You will leave refreshed and renewed.

Beautiful home

Home was as advertised beautiful. I read that is was for four adults and two pets under 20 lbs and other than a one year old child that is what we had. We arrived about 6:30 pm. I was impressed by the land and the inside of home. I had some personal business to do on internet but it was down. We kept trying but no go. Then the next morning still no internet called owner they came down and called internet company but not fix. Father’s Day husband and son went on paddle boat but wasn’t working properly owner looked at it and said needed parts. Then owner has three dogs that were down by the lake My daughter in law and I and the baby and her little dog about 14 lbs went down to the lake her dog was attacked by German Shepherd by Gods grace she survived. We called the owners they immediately came to the house offered a vet but was closed. They said if I would have marked pets they would have kept theirs locked up. The one dog German Shepherd is very protective of the other two. To say the least the whole trip was then messed up daughter in law very upset and me all I can see is that small dog in Shepard mouth. In closing clean home , excellent host but those dogs should not be on that side when someone is renting, what if it was a child.

Home away from home

What a cozy, lovely home! Larger than the actual vrbo pictures ; ) Loved the deep tub with the Dr. Teals foaming bath gel...was able to relax and light the aromatic candles ; ) Also loved the complimentary frozen pizza, apple juice, o.j. and waters. Elextric fireplace, Christmas tree, and Christmas decor were charming! Confirms Brenda goes that extra step for her guests. My grandbaby really enjoyed the swings and nature trail ; ) We sat by the pond drank coffee and just took nature in....also enjoyed the screened in porch in the back of the house. Told my daughter this is the place to go when you need a break away from the city. Thanks so very much Brenda!!! Hope to be back soon ; )

Our family Mini Vacation

Our trip to Bethel Village Christian Retreat was a wonderful experience. We are from Florida and rented off of VRBO, not knowing what to expect. Once we arrived we were amazed at how beautiful this place is. There is so much to do and it is all in a safe environment. Mr. & Mrs. Smith, our host are amazing people! What a wonderful place for families and their children to come play and relax. I can’t say enough how beautiful and relaxing this place is, the Smith’s did a wonderful job at making this place for what it is. I did not want to leave. We will definitely come back.

The Best! Thank you so much!

Everything was amazing for our stay here. Beautiful place, so relaxing and peaceful. The home was spotless and had such a welcoming feel. There was so much thought put into making sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable. Great fishing at the lake, and even a swing set for the our grandson when he came to visit. The hosts checked on us regularly. We would love to stay there again or at any place they host.
