The house was great. It had everything we needed. Kitchen was packed, TV’s were smart and worked great, WiFi was exceptional. Sharon, the host, checked in on us but we really did not need anything. Rentals can be touch and go but this one offered no negative surprises.

This was the perfect house for women to stay during a women's retreat. We couldn't do the bunk beds in the camp so we chose to stay at the Thumb Butte retreat. We were not disappointed! Comfortable and spacious. Plenty of room to think and reflect!
