Great house, great location, beautiful view, comfy beds. My only suggestion would be to please get better curtains for the sliding door in the primary bedroom. They don’t close all the way and let lots of light in early in the morning, had to hang towels to cover gaps

The property was clean and well stocked. The view was amazing and the beds were comfy. The host was very responsive when I had a few questions during our stay. The walk to town was not as convenient as expected but it was doable. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Family Wedding weekend

The house was perfect for our weekend stay. We appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. On our first morning there were k-cups available and coffee filters for auto drip coffee. The kitchen was well stocked. The owners were accommodating when we needed something. Thank you for making our trip easy!

Great place

The property is in a great location, it's very clean and very well stocked. We enjoyed the views of the deck along with the solo fire pit. One thing,the driveway is tricky so pay attention to the directions the owner gives you.

Excellent location — beautiful, comfortable home

We chose this beautifully appointed home for a getaway weekend — it was perfect! Super comfortable beds, really well equipped kitchen, updated bathrooms, and tons of lounging space for connecting. Appreciated being able to use the garage. Missed the fact that the indoor fireplaces are not working—only drawback for me. Excellent communication with the host. Definitely 5 stars!

Cozy house with a distance view

Listing was very accurate. Hosts were helpful and easy to reach. Full size washer and dryer in the garage was nice. Whole house was very clean. It had nice touches that made it feel like a home, not the usual inexpensive art and decor. My only negative is the sheets were polyester (many other rentals use these). They do not breath. The location was very quiet, all private single homes. However, the road into the house is very narrow, not wide enough for two cars. It was kind of nerve-racking wondering if we were going to meet another car on the road. (There is no shoulder, just off the road or into side of the hill)
