Wonderful place for spring break trip with three teens and a dog. Property is huge, with a beautiful large creek just a short hike down the hill, cow pastures, and a clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked house. Lexie does an amazing job caring for the home and their guests. We’ve been taking similar trips for spring breaks for 8 years and this is our favorite spot yet!

Was very pleased with everything. One note the entrance road is long and gravel that had been recently graded and was soft. We were in trucks so it was not a problem for us.

It was away from it all. We loved sitting on the porch. Our labs loved napping on the porch, and exploring and swimming in the creek. We loved it and would love to come back sometime. They provided everything you could possibly need and then some.

We love this place. It is so peaceful and relaxing. The phone works in spots if you need it. The dogs ran to exhaustion. The creek was up and the trees were beautiful. The house has everything you could need. I love the baskets in the bathroom (anything and everything) love them.
