We had a fantastic week at Martine’s home. She had a comfortable home with all the amenities we could need as a family of 6. The chickens and ducks were so cute, and the kids loved the rooster! She has a beautiful heated, inground pool with a slide that my kids also loved. Communication was great and we would love to stay again when we are in town! We had a great time.

My husband had a partial corneal transplant. We are not from the area so one of our daughters searched for a place for us, her, her husband and two sons to stay for a few days. We arrived the day before the scheduled procedure, travelled to the hospital the next day and his follow up with the surgeon the day after the surgery. We stayed an extra day for him to remain on his back. The living room has two sofas so he could lay down on one and our daughter’s family could watch movies, play games and just hang out. It was a great comfort to stay where we could all be together. The rental was the cleanest place we have ever stayed. It was quiet, except when they were playing some of the games and enjoying some very funny movies, The kitchen was easy to prepare some meals and fill the refrigerator with goodies. It was the perfect place! The Hostess answered all of my daughter’s inquiries in a very timely manner and was very helpful. Definitely a 5 star place for us!!!

Fantastic, quiet, beautiful, relaxing all rolled into one. The food that was delivered (menu on refrigerator) was great too. The bonus to us is that it is pet friendly! We highly recommend this location.
