Wow. Just wow. Every corner of that place was so thoughtfully put together. Stepping up into that screened in porch just knocked the breath right out of me. When I stepped in, I had realized that I had severely over packed. They had EVERYTHING I COULD NEED FULLY STOCKED! they had so many all natural skin care products!! Everything from bubble bath and face masks to all natural goats milk body wash (and many other options!) to rosewater facial misting spray and so many other things it's too much to list! And the hosts were so nice! Staying here was like slipping into the lap of luxury. After all the baths and the hot tub visits- My skin is glowing! SIDE NOTE IF YOU DO STAY HERE!there's a little waterfall just short walking distance down smiley hollow road on the left just past that utility road that juts up that hill between two poles. When we were there at the base of that little water fall, there's a shallow pool where a bunch of little fish were gathered. If you put your feet in and sit really still, they will eat the dead skin right off them puppies like they do at the spa.

We saw the ad featuring the claw foot tub and we were hooked!

Why they chose this property

We are simple, country folks and we loved the primitive charm and area history.

What makes this property unique

Our home is located in the middle of the Smiley family farmland and is so peaceful and relaxing. We enjoy sitting on our porch in the early evening and listening to the many owl species calling to each other.
