We made a quick family trip and really enjoyed ourselves. Our host was very responsive, the games that were provided were appreciated by all of us, and the firewood so we could easily use the firepit was a special perk! Recommend; we would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I came with another couple for a weekend of golf. We all loved this place and felt we had everything we needed. We golfed in the afternoons, played games around the kitchen table in the evening & than had some awesome bonfires. The mosquitos were pretty bad but expected. Definitely a place we'd look forward to coming back to.

Exactly as pictured!

This place could not have been more perfect and accommodating as shown! It was a girls weekend away and we enjoyed every second there. Kitchen had everything needed for us to cook and enough firewood to last all weekend while we hung out at the bonfire and enjoyed the quiet and escape from the rest of the world. I highly recommend staying here whether you are coming with family or friends!

Great house

The house was very clean and exactly like the pictures.it had everything that we needed. It was nice and quiet and were able to explore the property. The yard games they had were awesome. I went with my husband and another couple to get away so we can relax and reset and that is exactly what we were able to do. Check in and everything was very easy. Everything was perfect for us. We are already looking to book again next year for another trip.

Quiet location

The inside was clean and comfortable. The outside of the property could use some love and maintenance, but that's to be expected given the woodsy location. The bugs were awful at night, making it impossible to enjoy the very nice firepit. The multiple abandoned properties on the road are unfortunate. There's nothing that can really be done about that though. This rental is definitely the nicest on the road.
