We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The best parts were the big table that we could all fit around the outside fire pit with the lights and beautiful tobacco ranch’s LOVE and cross. It was perfect! Thank you
This was a beautiful property and it was perfect for our family’s needs! It was a spacious and well equipped for many meals!We had a gathering on the patio and it spilled into the house and there was enough room for many of our local relatives and friends! The grounds are fabulous and very interesting!
Jim offered great hospitality during our stay for a local concert. He met us upon arrival and even made some arrival accommodations for us. The space was clean, exactly as described, and near bars, taverns, and a grocery store! Everything we needed was very close by. Would definitely return (:
Everything was great, but a few things that were listed should be mentioned. The washer and dryer are not at the house, but are available to use by request. The televisions are not usable without your own Wi-Fi source. Location, cleanliness, and the property are very good
