★★★★★ GUEST FEEDBACK ★★★★★

I`ve been a host for more than a decade, but this is a brand new listing for me. You can check out my profile to see past reviews from my old house, but the first guests here have said:

`This home was beyond our expectations... Relaxing in the Jacuzzi as wildlife passed through was pure bliss. ` - Angelica

`Amazing location and a beautiful home! True to the name as the turkeys graced me with their presence!!` - Rachel

`A beautiful home and true mountain retreat. Deer came right up to us while in the hot tub.` - Elizabeth

`We loved the large dining room table and the front porch that becomes a bird oasis in the mornings! Sipping on a hot coffee, listening to the birds flying around you was a delightful experience.` - Hakan

★★★★★ PLEASE NOTE ★★★★★

+ 4pm or later checkin; 10am checkout. Our cleaners can`t accommodate exceptions, sorry!
+ No smoking inside or out; no outdoor wood firepits, no parties. 6 guests max.
+ We`ve arranged a deal with our cleaning service that allows us to keep our cleaning fees lower than the vast majority of houses this size. Guests need to wash their dishes & start a load of towels in the washer, which saves the cleaners an hour of work while the machine runs.

★★★★★ MY HOME ★★★★★

Welcome to the land of elk, deer and wild turkeys -- they`re everywhere!

My cabin sits in a wildlife corridor between the Prospect Mountain Open Space and Giant Track Mountain, in a quiet residential neighborhood. It`s a great place to recharge with family and friends, and it`s basically an outdoor zoo with free admission :)

The home features a main floor with full size washer/dryer, bathroom, queen bedroom with private fireplace, full kitchen with a ton of amenities, and an open living/dining area. Upstairs you`ll find two bedrooms, a seating area, and a powder room and shower room.

My favorite part of the retreat is the super fun back yard, with a big deck, BBQ, ample seating, a gas fire pit and our friendly and enormous flocks of wild turkeys.
