This is a VERY beautiful and spacious house, by Kalama River. The drive is nice winding countryside road and the property is very safe and peaceful and has all modern comfortable amenities. This was also the MOST well-stocked rental we have been to. The host is extremely helpful, available and proactive and thoughtful. We had a wonderful stay.

Not clean. Moldy coffee in the coffee maker, dirty linens in laundry bins in bedrooms, fridge was funky with leftover food, house smelled like wet dog, generally didn't feel clean, yet we paid more than 325 cleaning fee. The ancillary sleeping area/game room was very disheveled and also not clean.

This property is fabulous! Plenty of space for our family, with endless things for the kids to do. The roll-up garage game room kept us entertained for hours (darts, pool, air hockey & ping pong) The surroundings are beautiful & include the gorgeous Kalama River directly across the road. The house itself was perfect. I cannot imagine needing anything that was not already available in the kitchen. Great communication with the owner, added to our wonderful experience! We will be back!

Beautiful home!!!

Wow! So many great things to say about this home. The layout is perfect for a larger group giving everyone their own space as well as ample common space. We loved the games in the shop and make s’mores in the fire pit. The house was stoked above and beyond to normal vrbo rentals. Everything was so clean and tidy. The beds were so comfortable too! The owner was a delete to talk to and we will be renting from them again at either this home or one of their others. 10 out of 10 would recommend this home or one of their others.
