Ideal location to stay and visit some family in the area. Much better and less expensive than a hotel room. Very peaceful and serene. Enjoyed having coffee on the deck in the morning and watching and hearing the wildlife. Tom was very responsive and easy to communicate with during my stay.

If you're looking for a woodsy home away from home, can't recommend Tom's property enough! It was a pleasure booking and communicating with the host. Very accommodating to my pups. They loved the lake view and the cozy vibe.

I booked for Labor Day weekend (Saturdsy through Monday) and was offered Friday free of charge! Unbelievable. Tom also left fresh corn from the Farmer's Market and butter as a welcome gift. Delicious! The inside was clean and had what you needed (pots, coffee maker, toaster, every kitchen utensil you could think of, and plates/glasses). Forget coffee? He had a can available, as well as a case of water. Everything is clearly identified so no guess work (extra blankets, dog blankets, towels, laundry room lights). The instructions or arrival and departure could not be clearer! The views from the living room and bedroom were just beautiful. Sit on the back deck with a book, listen to the birds, and just relax. It is not so remote that you feel uneasy! I was there with my dog and felt very safe and at peace. The pond is lovely, with all the trees just starting to turn colors. My dog was able to run all over and relax after on the deck. We also walked up to the road from the house a few times each day (no leash, beautiful little trail) for some exercise. I loved staying here! It did pour one night and yes, but you can hang on the couch, look outside, and still be happy while the sun is not shining. There are also a ton of places to visit, but we just wanted to relax at the house. Singles, couples, families (two bedrooms- I only used the Queen size bed and it was super comfortable), will love this place. I know I did!
