About this house rental

The Home:
This private home is perched on a gentle hill, offering stunning views of rolling hills and valleys, Turkey Scratch Mountain, and sometimes even the neighboring cows grazing just beyond the fence line.

Sleeping & Living Spaces:
(If bringing a pet - please review pet policy below for more details)**
The main level features two bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom. For added convenience, a washer and dryer are available for guest use, located in a dedicated space within the secondary downstairs bathroom.

Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious open loft with a separate living area, four full-size bunk beds, a patio with scenic views, and a large full bathroom with a tub.

Garage Game Room & Pet Suite:
The garage—connected to the home by a breezeway—is both dog-friendly and doubles as a game room. This heated and cooled space includes a ping pong table, classic Nintendo, dart board, and a great selection of board games.

An XL doggie door provides access to a 20x15 fenced area, making it easy for pups to enjoy their own outdoor space. ******Please note, the inside of the home is not pup friend, thank you for understanding!

This is definitely one of our top vacation rentals!! The house is so nice! They thought of everything when it comes to making a stay nice and comfortable. The owners go above and beyond to make sure your stay is the best it can be. I wish we could've stayed longer than 3 nights. We'll surely be back!

I cannot express how amazing this place is. From the beginning the communication with the host was phenomenal, they were so sweet & very quick with replies to any questions. The house is stunning, clean, in a great place, beautiful views, & truly has everything you could need. The garage & fenced in yard for the dogs was so nice. 10/10 stay & will definitely be coming back!
