We booked this place for a Disc Golf tournament at Brook trails. We were party at seven and we had all the room we needed and plenty of pots and pans to make whatever you want. We really enjoyed the remote and peaceful surroundings, including hanging out at the pond. We would definitely book this place again Thanks Art

This place is magical and so spacious. If you like to unplug and be with family and friends this place is for you and the family dog (s). Super kid friendly, comfy beds and great spots all over to chill.Tips: bring a ice & cooler for drinks, your own oven ready food (no microwave) & keep in in your off the grid running in solar.

Great house for a group hangout such as a family reunion or friend group. Did not explore the property at all but the house was fine, very private. Communication with owner was excellent. Some house info was hard to find; suggest putting it all in a binder on the coffee table. But we did figure everything out with a little help from owner. Hot tub works great; the timer heats the water up and it gets good 'n hot!

We spent 4 days in the rain on this property for our family Holiday and it was amazing! The caretaker 'Kale' was excellent, easily to communicate with and answered all of our questions. The home was perfect for all of us. For those of us that needed wifi, Starlink worked very well. We loved wandering through the vast forest and found a ton of edible mushrooms for a feast. Black trumpet chanterelles and hedgehogs were going off with all the rain! The hot tub and BBQ were great! This property will definitely be at the top of our list in the future! Thank you, Michael

Relaxing, serene place to stay

We had a stay with our extended family, it was really beautiful and relaxing vacation for the whole family, with lots of space outdoor and very private area. Kitchen is lots of utensils and spices. Would highly recommend. The host was very responsive and gave some trips and well.. Allowed us for early check-in and made the process very smooth.

Retreat in the woods

This is a peaceful and wonderful comfy house in the woods. It is off grid, and we had a lovely time maintaining a fire, going for walks, playing games, watching movies, and overall detaching from the world. It is quiet and beautiful, we'll definitely come back again!

A beautiful stay in the woods

The only sounds you could hear from the property were the natural sounds of the woods. No other property within 66 acres of woodlands, and almost none withing 3 miles. Just a lovely place for a small family vacation.

Apart from time and in a separate space....

This was truly a wondrous place. I cannot begin to thank you enough for sharing this place with us. We had a glorious week, celebrating our friendships, family and the season in a perfect environment. It is our hope to revel in this beautiful place again and again.

Relaxing Forest Reunion

The property is beautiful and the house was lovely. We had plenty of room and the outside area was so wonderful for our dogs to play and explore. They especially loved the pond. There was a hiking trail and a deserted road for walking. Art was great about responding to questions before we arrived and check in was easy. I would definitely stay here again.

Awesome place in the woods

We had such a lovely time here. It ended up being pretty rainy while we were there, but the wood burning stove and the hot tub kept us nice and cosy. We all did several hikes around the property (beautiful redwoods and oaks, lots of ferns, moss and mushrooms, and the creek running right by the house). The kitchen is really well equipped: we made several great meals. We had 6 adults and 3 teens, plenty of sleeping space for all. Overall a great spot, I'd be happy to go back again.

Heaven

If you want to experience total peace and quiet, this is the place to be. We had 7 adults, 2 girls and 3 dogs and the house was more than adequate. The dogs and kids had free range of the property. We really enjoyed just sitting outside and enjoying nature. House and kitchen were well stocked (no microwave or toaster, which caused me to panic a bit, but figured out quite nicely). Art responded quickly to my messages and was always very gracious. This is on the top of our list to return to someday.

A private state park just for yourself

I have rented a lot of places over the years. But this one is definitely unique sad stands out. Complete isolation with acres of private serene nature all yours to enjoy. We were 5 adults and 3 teens had an amazing time. Communication with the owner was really good,

Amazing Property!

What a magical space! We did a last minute Easter visit and our family ranging from babies to grandparents had a wonderful time. The house was beautifully clean and had many of the small items(baby gate, highchair) that make traveling with little kids so much easier. The property itself is stunning, our kids spent everyday outside playing by the creek or the large meadow & play structure. We already want to go back when all the flowers start blooming!
