Fantastic property for our family of four.
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
Very quiet and tranquil place. Clean and comfy. Recommend small car for parking purposes. My SUV fit ok, but there was a work truck parked near the barn that did not move. I am assuming it was the owners, because there was a third car and I could barely get past them into the parking space. Other than the parking situation, it would've been 5 stars all the way around!

Cozy and Comfortable for a weekend in the mountains!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
The house was OK with everything we expected. Although the duct tape covering a hole in the bathtub was a little unusual. The biggest issue was the location was such that cell service was VERY bad. I had one tiny bar on ATT and my SIL had zero on Verizon. I know the owners can't control cell service but they can control the internet speeds and connectivity. The internet was also very poor such that it was hard to send/receive text messages or emails and it kept dropping out totally. If you were planning on streaming a movie I don't think that would work out at all.
