The house was fantastic. The drive to the house was beautiful, and there were trails to hike and swim holes in the river within a short distance. The house had plenty of space, is eclectic and fun, well decorated but livable at the same time.Nice kitchen with anything you may need. It was hot while we were there so we did not get to use the outdoor areas as much as we would have liked. There is a huge screened porch /patio that would be perfect in cooler weather. Stacey is quick to respond to questions and is a thoughtful communicative host. This truly is a home away from home!
What a great floor plan! Love the open kitchen and the giant table! Wow! More than enough space for our family of 8 with kids ages 2-20. We loved the large property and the multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. Very grateful for the few items in the frig but wish there had been a few more towels. It would also have been useful if we had known how rural the property was. We were nearly 30 minutes from any gas station or grocery. There are also no outdoor lights on the property if you arrive after dark. We enjoyed hiking at Backbone Trail but wish a few more options were recommended.
Trop top, ça répondait à nos attentes, Stacey réactive, reprond de suite à nos questions, On habite en France, mais, di l'occasion se présenterait on y reviendrai.
I am originally from this area, but I now live in FL. My husband & I love the water and the beach, but we also enjoy our time in the forest. Being a retired military couple I understand the need for a relaxing retreat or stop-over. I like knowing that as a host I can offer that retreat to others.
