About the host

Hosted by Owner / Property Manager

Host profile image
We, ( Mike and Kim ) purchased this gracious home in June of 2015 and live in the owners unit on the left side of this 4000+sqft residence. Our home is and will always be an ever changing work in progress: always on the lookout for that next perfect antique or unique treasure to place inside, to the ongoing exterior yard work; adding perennial and vegetable gardens, working on the lawn and path down to the woods or just finding ways to make our guests more comfortable! Our goal is to provide all that one could need to make your stay relaxing and memorable. Between us, we have 7 children and 10 grandchildren, as well as two 10 year old pups; a Jack Russell named Token and a Jack Russell-Chihuahua mix named Peanut. If you have questions or a special request please don’t hesitate to contact us. We will get back to you promptly!
