The property is beautiful, peaceful and the perfect way to spend your time up there. We came up for a bachelorette trip and it was the most serene and peaceful place to be. Our bride to be was beyond happy and enjoyed her room as well as how close we were to the sunflower festival and how many games we could play at the house.

Nice, Secluded, and So many extra niceties

It was a lovely stay in a very private wooded area. The hosts also had plenty of extras I'm not used to seeing in a vacation rental like plenty of paper products, plates, cups, cutlery and even disposable toothbrushes. We'd love to stay here again on our next visit to the area.

Second visit - just as amazing

This was our second visit at this lovely house. It was just as amazing this time as it was the first time. Super scenic, extremely serene, this place is the ultimate rental to just disconnect and relax. If you want to just relax in nature it will be hard to find a better place.
