About the host
Hosted by Samantha Kraus
We are a family of 5 that loves to travel. This house was our main residence until about 2 years ago when work pulled us out of state. We love visiting the house and all the property has to offer. We still visit a few times a year.
Why they chose this property
This property is located on spring creek, a world famous fossil hunting creek. There is 47 acres to explore. As well as a pool and a hot tub out door gas fire pit and swing-set. In the house there is so much to offer. Gym, pool table, ping pong table, 2 large living rooms with tvs. A bar with its own fridge, ovens, stove and dishwasher.
What makes this property unique
Spring Creek is really a unique benefit. People from all over the world have come to fossil hunt here. the shale walls are so beautiful, it like looking 380 years into the past. Fossils are easy to find trilobites are in almost every piece of shale.
