10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
Really nice place! Only thing was the driveway was very steep, so getting in and out was a bit difficult the first few times but we were warned ahead of time. And had a couple of bugs and a mouse randomly show up at the end of the trip, but not much you can do about that when you’re in the middle of the woods. The property promptly had Orkin arrive the following morning to mediate those issues. Amazing view and really nice hot tub!
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
This property worked great for our group of 6 adults! One of the full bathrooms is located off the garage/game room so two of us trekked the two sets of stairs - one of which is a metal spiral stairway - for daily use. All bedrooms are on the top floor. The property manager was very responsive and handled our request for supplies quickly. The driveway is very steep - we are a group of car enthusiasts and we would have appreciated knowing that before arrival. Plenty of parking space for our 5 cars. Also, the kitchen has k-cups and salt and pepper. No other condiments in the home for food prep (seasonings, oils, etc). The view out front is amazing and the trees surrounding the property are home to many birds including wild turkeys. The sounds were incredible!

Property was nice and beautiful surroundings. A little far from any holiday activities. Cleanliness of bathrooms and bedrooms was not great.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2021
The listing online made the house out to be a gorgeous cabin. From the start, our experience was not great. The person who arrived first went to put groceries down on the stove and the burner was left on by whoever cleaned the house. She burnt her hand and we attempted to contact the owner to let them know, but they never responded to us. Once the rest of our party got there and once we started walking around, we noticed that the house did not seem to be cleaned before we got there at all. We found tons of dead bugs all over the corners of the floors and the window sills. One of our guests even noticed what looked like possible pubic hair on one of the bathroom toilets and this was prior to any of us using the bathrooms. The house was also extremely dusty and not just in high up spaces. We found instructions to use the fireplace, however, the fireplace didn’t work. The basement had a horrible mildew smell which caused us to not be able to even use it. When we did go down there the one time to attempt to play pool, the pool table was completely uneven and when you shot the ball into the hole, it would get stuck. The online advertisement states the home is professionally cleaned, but it did not represent that. The ad also stated the house slept 12 but it would have been a struggle to even get 10 in there. Understandably, there were no condiments for our use in the home, but it was never stated in the advertisement that we needed to provide basics such as salt and pepper. Overall, the home was beautiful and we had a good time, but highly suggest taking some of these complaints seriously as to not have false advertisement.
