We had a wonderful stay at the Ashland Lodge with our group of 11, which included our adult children and elderly parents. The home is incredibly beautiful, spacious, and thoughtfully laid out. There was more than enough room for everyone to spread out, relax, and enjoy time together.The outdoor spaces were one of our favorite parts of the property. We spent hours enjoying the peaceful patio, watching the pond, and playing bocce ball. The setting is absolutely stunning and feels like a private nature retreat. During our stay we saw an amazing variety of wildlife, including deer, frogs, lizards, bats, and even dusky-footed woodrats!The location was perfect for exploring the Ashland area, and returning to such a peaceful, comfortable home at the end of each day was a highlight of our trip. We would happily stay here again.There were just two issues worth mentioning for future guests and the owners. With a larger group, the hot water supply was limited, making it difficult for everyone to shower comfortably. Additionally, the washing machine was out of service during our stay. While we understand that appliances sometimes break unexpectedly, we weren't informed about the issue until the day we arrived, which made it difficult to plan ahead.Overall, these were relatively minor inconveniences compared to what an exceptional property this is. We highly recommend the Ashland Lodge and would gladly return.
