Beautiful home! Loved the spacious kitchen and large bathrooms. We really appreciated the close proximity to Vienna for groceries, coffee, etc. The view from the back deck is fantastic. Comfortable and spacious.
This is an excellent property, with a wonderful living room where everyone could visit. The rooms were perfect for our group, and we totally enjoyed the outdoor fire pit area. It is conveniently close to town, but just far enough outside to provide a quiet, comfortable environment. I will be staying here again on our next visit to Mermet Springs Dive Park!
We booked this property twice, one night each way on a road trip. It's very clean, no clutter and the perfect size for one to two families. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen has tons of counter space, there are plenty of towels and despite being on a main road, we got a quiet night's sleep. We would definitely book again.

Thanks so much for your kind words. We will roll out the red carpet and be looking forward to you staying at our home in the future.
Absolutely fantastic property. We were only there for 1 night for a family wedding near by. This property was perfect for our party of 7. Everything we needed. Plenty of room, WiFi worked well. Very clean. Just a great property. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much… We truly appreciate your kind words and for staying in our home.
Thank you so much for a great stay! This place is super big - lots of room to stretch out, great patio and grill. We did a little exploring out back - gorgeous property and so conveniently located to Mermet Springs. We so enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to come back again!
House is very nice. Location is even better for going to the rock quarry. Glenn and PJ are the best host. Very quick to respond. We live this place and stay several times a year.
The house was amazing. Was a great place to stay as we were in the area for 2 family reunions. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. The back patio offfered a great place to have my tea while I watched the sun come up over the hills! Thank you!!

We’ve stayed at this home a few times while traveling for work. The space has always been clean and has everything we needed for a short trip. We’d definitely stay again!
We are so happy to have this property available for when we dive at Mermet Springs. From here on out we will plan out trip around the availability of PJ's Palace. Everything was just perfect!
We own a local scuba diving destination and are outdoor enthusiasts. Being a host for a home so near to Scuba diving, biking, hiking and hunting is just amazing.
