"The property was beautiful! Perfect getaway for a family get together 7 adults and 2 kids. The house is nestled up on a mountaintop that gives the best sunrises to enjoy your morning coffee by and amazing sunsets to enjoy after dinner! The pool is great, we spent all day enjoying the pool and the great weather. We brought binoculars and saw a bald eagle and condors.The house is very big with all the amenities you need. The bedrooms are so comfortable and bathrooms are stocked with everything you need. We cooked and bbq’d all our meals in the big kitchen and sat around the big table and played games at night. Absolutely perfect and memorable. We loved it!"

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this home for a full week and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. The backyard was the highlight of our trip! We spent every evening enjoying the pool, hot tub, and outdoor kitchen. The large outdoor dining table easily accommodated our entire group and became the perfect place to gather for dinner and relax after long days.Inside, the home was just as impressive. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces were beautiful, cozy, and very inviting. Everything was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained.Our kids especially loved the swing set and play area, and we also enjoyed the peaceful views of the pond from the front of the property. The gazebo and front outdoor dining area were another favorite spot for morning coffee and quiet conversations.The homeowner was outstanding; friendly, responsive, and a pleasure to communicate with throughout our stay. They made everything easy and were incredibly helpful whenever we had questions.Overall, this was one of the best vacation rentals we’ve stayed in. We made so many great memories here, and we already look forward to returning next year. Highly recommend!"
