Everything was great. The heater was broken and it was cold Friday night but the owners did what they could with extra space heaters to try and keep the place as warm as possible in light of missing replacement parts. I was dealing with the same issue with my own heater at home and understand the frustrations. They were accommodating when I needed to return because of something I left behind. Very cute home!

I had the pleasure of staying at this truly unique wooden house over the weekend, and it was an absolute delight. The home is beautifully designed and incredibly well maintained, with a character that sets it apart from anything else I’ve seen. Nestled in a peaceful, charming neighborhood, it offered the perfect blend of comfort and charm. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing retreat or a cozy weekend escape, this place hits all the right notes. Highly recommend!

Graduation gee away

Plenty of linens and cooking utensils. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I do not recommend staying there if you have balance and walking issues. The house is beautiful and transports you back in time. Love the western theme. The hot tub would’ve been greatly appreciated after our travel from Fla.
