32 Doris Dr., is a home bathed in natural sunlight, gleaming hardwood floors, beautiful craftsmanship throughout and floor to ceiling windows. You will find this home impeccably clean, a full stocked kitchen, beautiful gas fireplace, comfortable bed beds and plenty of linens and towels. This expensive property is nestled in tranquil surroundings, lots of privacy and a large beautiful back deck to enjoy a brook that runs through the backyard where we spotted deer running past. Your host Kendra is very welcoming and friendly and made check-in fast and easy. She was always just a message away and responded quickly and assured the home was spotless upon our revival. We enjoyed this property in the winter and Paul kept us plowed out as well as everything shoveled. Kendra went above and beyond providing thoughtful amenities that made our month-long stay truly stress-free. We really couldn’t ask for more. We will certainly be back. Enjoy this exceptional property.

The host is wonderfully responsive, as we were traveling in snowy weather, the driveway was plowed, the walks were shoveled and salted, and the house is absolutely charming! We want to come back in warmer weather and take a walk by your brook in the back yard. Thank you for everything :)
