The property and house were prefect for a group gate-away! The house was clean, comfortable, well decorated and well maintained. The tavern and outdoor area was a bonus. The host was very responsive and made the check-in and check-out process easy!

Dale was an amazing host! Kind, caring, and communicative. The house was even more beautiful in person than in the photos, both inside and out. The tavern was also the perfect place to relax and chill in. The house had plenty of space, great bathrooms, and a cute den to enjoy your morning coffee & breakfast. My friends and I had the best time! Would highly recommend, 10/10

From the moment we began speaking with Dale, we knew we were in for an amazing experience! Dale was friendly, communicative when needed, and we LOVED learning the history of the amazing home we were staying in. We booked the Granite House for our wedding weekend for us and the wedding party to stay in, and it was perfect. The fire pit was amazing for the cool nights too! On the wedding day, the gentlemen got ready and took photos in the tavern and the ladies made full use of the house. The bridal suite in the primary bedroom was perfect for me to hang my dress when we arrived on Wednesday and keep it hidden until the wedding day on Saturday. We just really can’t recommend this property enough. It was far beyond our hopes and absolutely MADE our wedding weekend complete!

The granite house is lovely and the adjacent Tavern and outdoor spaces are fantastic. Made a great fire in the huge fire pit area and enjoyed the nearby fireworks. The tavern space was great but hardly used as we were out at Mystic and other spots in the area. One small issue was the bathroom setup. The third bath is on the main level and was the go to shower spot for four of us. The shower is amazing so it was worth the small hassle.
