Wonderful Stay in Wise!

We had a wonderful time in Wise. The house was exactly how it was described. There were a lot of little touches that made it feel like we were staying with family- extra blankets on the bed, trial size toiletries, and things in the kitchen you might have forgotten. It was a great stay!

Perfect Location, Wonderful Space

We were at this home for a week, and the size of the property allowed us to spread out and have plenty of room for everyone. The deer in the yard, the amazing star gazing, and the mountain bluebirds made this a mountain top retreat really special. This was our second trip to the property, and we were so relieved it was available for our trip!

Peaceful Country

The house was great. Dated, as other reviews say, but absolutely spotless. Everything was just as listed and very comfortable. The back yard area was wonderful. So nice to come in from work and relax out back while watching deer and bunnies play! Would definitely recommend and would stay again if in the area. The host was responsive and always made sure all was good!

Wonderfully Convenient, Beautifully Situated

This property is a wonderful throwback to the home I grew up in. While it is not updated with new colors and such, it is clean, warm and in very good shape. The owner and their people could not have been more accommodating. You are close to everything, yet given the acreage, somewhat secluded. I will be back as much as they will have me.
