It was a lovely stay for us and our pet. We were visiting relatives in that areaWe were impressed with the backyard and deck. We appreciate the host addressing our concerns would recommend this to our friends relatives.
The check in process was great. We were ahead of schedule getting there and I contacted the host and asked if we could check in early and she said it was all ready for us.
Great home for an affordable price. Splitting this place with multiple people we had ample space. They provide many of the same amenities as a hotel space (body wash, shampoo, soaps), and more (firewood, propane, seasonings).1 ply toilet paper provided, if that’s a determining factor for anyone. Also not a wide variety of cooking implements, but that’s not to be expected (we got by pretty easily). Owner provides a lot of information about the surrounding area and provides a cozy local feel with decor and recommendations. Would book again!
Great property & location. Well appointed, with everything one would need. Interior was beautiful.Missing threshold at back right bedroom needs immediate attention, as one of us cut our toe due to exposed nails.Bathroom cushioned toilet seat needs to be replaced with a conventional hard toilet seat.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We will take care of that asap, I am so sorry that you cut your toe!
The house was setup nicely with all amenities needed in the kitchen and bathroom. Nice fenced in yard for the dogs. Good communication from the owner when I needed help accessing the property. Only watch out was my dog found a pest trap under the bed. I picked up all the traps to ensure that she didn’t get into more and get sick.
