We enjoyed the stay at the Stone’s Throw Farmhouse so much! The owner provided a great condition and cleanness for our weekend. And especially the warm-hearted birthday card for our dog added a star to it!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Feb 2024
Delayed review as I was waiting for listing to be amended: We had a wonderful time with two other couples. House spacious for all of us including our dog -the small, fenced area off the kitchen came in handy for quick potty breaks. Location was great. Major complaint: bathrooms were NOT as advertised. Listed as 3 full/3 half but house only had 2.5 BA. Listing still not corrected even after notifying owner. I chose this property because when this group travels together, we do best with having a full bath for each couple. There were also a few housekeeping issues that may have been a result of understaffed housekeeping. Great house with room for improvement. Wife of person that booked.
