This property was the absolute BEST rental I have ever stayed at. It’s positively stunning. The views are breathtaking. Beyond Clean, it was sparkling. We all loved the furnishings and independently remarked how comfortable the beds were. Eric and Jacquline were fantastic hosts. The farm animals are adorable. Sunrise from the deck was worth waking up to. We all said we HAVE return during the summer. The area is home to our extended family, so more reason to return. You have thought of everything, the comfort of your guests shows in everything you’ve done in completing this home. Thank you for sharing it
