Ms. Debi was very gracious & helpful. Property is nice & cozy but was a bit too isolated for me. If your looking to disconnect from the world & enjoy some alone time this is the perfect place for it.

Debi's place was a slice of heaven. Every photo in the ad was correct. Her gardens were exceptional & peaceful. I stayed 8 nights & could have easily booked a month. From riding horses, hiking & writing I was at total peace. Weather staying for a day or more it's totally worth it. Thank you again Debi for sharing your beautiful home with me.

The gardens are of the fairytale variety. My host greeted me with a warm smile and let me know that if there was anything I needed I could simply ask- but, no need as every detail was addressed. The accommodations were charming and oh, so comfortable. Hummingbird Hill was not only the perfect place to unwind, it was balm for the soul.

10/10. It was a short stay, but a wonderful stay. A perfect little retreat. Debi's property is beautiful. Even in winter. It was my mom and I and 4 pups! Thank you for allowing us to bring all 4. Debi had fresh OJ, lemon water, eggs, milk and coffee in the fridge and snacks for the dogs! Just a beautiful, peaceful place. Studio apartment (lower portion of her house) with porch, has wifi, I had no phone service but i didnt need it nor want it! Its perfect for wanting to be in nature. She gave us directions there and met us. Showed us around her property and where we'll be staying. We enjoyed our stay and hopefully one day can come back when the weather is warmer and garden in bloom!

Lovely Escape

What a wonderful, quiet retreat! The host is very kind and generously shared eggs from their chickens! Lovely garden to enjoy and relax. Nicely located not too far from town/amenities, but tucked away from the road and noise.

Debi has created a slice of botanical paradise at her property. The location is lush with plants, flowers and singing birds (and chickens) to seranade you. The apartment is comfortably and beautifully appointed with a comfortable king bed, fully appointed kitchen (minus oven), dining area and a very nice bathroom. You can sit on the deck and chill on the chaise lounge or enjoy the two person swing as you peruse the landscape. We plan on a return stay in the fall. Highly recommend!
