We had a fantastic stay.

We had a very pleasant experience! The house is VERY clean, and Deanne, the caretaker, was very responsive. The property is just as advertised. We highly recommend staying here for quiet get-away.

This is such a special place. Now, in early June, the grounds are glorious: meticulously cared for, and so inviting. The beautiful rhododendrons are in bloom. The herb garden provides fresh herbs for meals. The back porch overlooking the lawn and pond is lovely for hanging out or having a meal. Inside, too, is carefully cared for: it's very clean, kitchen is well-organized and has everything our group of 7 needs. Beds are comfy, and there is plenty of room for our group to gather, either together or separately. We use the upstairs playroom for yoga and the view is spectacular! We have been coming twice a year for several years and it's always a welcoming place. The pictures are accurate, but it's hard to convey the welcoming feeling of the whole house. It looks wonderful, but in-person it's even better!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2023
The house was great. It was clean and we enjoyed the stay. I have two issues. The ramp was not on the front as I was told and was pictured. My son had to carry my 18 year old grandson in and out of the house. The ramp was the main reason we chose the home. I would have reached out to the property manager but I sent her two text messages before we arrived and didn't receive a response. So I thought reaching out would be pointless. That's why I gave the lower rating.
