Home with an amazing view
This was our 2nd visit to this wonderful property. Our family spent a week in this beautiful home. We gathered from several states and relaxed in the lovely mountain home retreat. We hiked, golfed, played pickleball, boated and enjoyed the nearby towns. But our favorite memories will be all the conversations on the deck enjoying the tremendous view! Thank you for your hospitality and we hope to be back!

Exquisite views!
We chose this property for location and online representation (photos/reviews). We were not disappointed! The home is thoughtfully stocked (ask about coffee!) and pleasantly decorated in comfortable neutrals. We loved every minute of our five-day stay in October. Did I mention the mountain views? The owner is caring and responsive and deserves the highest rating!
