We had an amazing stay! The house was perfect for our group — two families of four, one couple, and a single — and it fit us all comfortably. The layout gave everyone enough space to relax, and the backyard and pool were absolutely ideal. We ended up spending multiple days just hanging out at the house because it was so enjoyable. The basement with video games was a huge hit with both the kids and adults. At night, the sky was incredibly clear and dark — perfect for stargazing. Everything was clean, well-stocked, and exactly as described. We’d definitely stay here again!

The place to be

This place is wonderful. The hosts are so nice and accommodating, the property is absolutely beautiful and well maintained. We came up for a weekend and although the weather wasn’t ideal, we had plenty to do at the house and close by. The cell service isn’t great in the area, but myself and 6 others were all able to connect to the WiFi with no connection issues or hiccups. All of the rooms are great, but my personal favorite was the Bills room. I would definitely come back again! Go Bills!

The Kelley vacation

The property was well hidden. The children were excited to use the pool morning,noon and night. They could make lots of noise and we didn’t care because the neighbors were so far away. It rained when we got there and when we left so that was unfortunate. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Private Little Get Away

What a great little farmhouse meets modern amenities!This cute little house tucked away on a private piece of property for ultimate peace and relaxation offers plenty of indoor and outdoor space. The house was very clean with lots of extra goodies like coffee pods for the coffee bar, a basket of snacks, bottled water and more. The upstairs was spacious and cutely decorated. The downstairs was very roomy, had lots of games for kids.The only drawback with the lower level was that it was quite a bit colder down there than the upstairs, maybe even 7-10 degrees cooler. We used portable heaters in the downstairs bedrooms to warm them up before retiring. Our family would definitely return to this house if we are ever back in the area!

Amazing!

We arrived to a spotless house and so much peace and quiet! Everyone was excited to get in the pool for a fun swim with games and laughter. The front porch was amazing for me. I have back issues and I was able to put pillows behind my back, put my feet up, enjoy a good book almost free of pain. The house was big enough that everyone could do their own thing and not get on each other's nerves. Two little issues: I care for my parents, so of course they came along. I should have asked if there was a walk in shower, but I didn't think about it. It was very difficult giving Mom a shower. I had my daughter help me and we were able to accomplish it with the use of a chair. The other issue was the horrible water smell while showering. Other than those 2 things, it was a perfect vacation! When I asked my grandchildren if they had a good time, they all shouted, "YES" They all want to go back next year. Thank you everyone!
