We absolutely loved our stay! The house is beautiful, spotless, incredibly comfortable and exceptionally well appointed. Katie even left a sweet welcome gift on the counter, which was such a thoughtful touch.You can tell this home was designed to bring people together. Everything you could need has been thoughtfully provided, and the quality and care throughout the home really stand out. From the comfortable gathering spaces to the game room, music room, beautiful deck and fire pit, there is something for everyone. The beds and linens were wonderful too.The setting is incredibly peaceful and quiet, and we loved watching the deer. We also really appreciated Katie’s guidebook and local recommendations—the little produce store was a gem!Most of all, this didn’t feel like a rental. It felt like a warm, welcoming home created for people to gather, relax and enjoy time together. We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely return!

About the host
Hosted by Katie
Hi there! I'm Katie, wife to the love of my life and Mama to two teens. We are a houseful of Type A firstborns, who have to regularly navigate how to bring out the best in each other. I've always had a heart to serve. Hosting family and friends for dinner and events nourishes my soul. My heart to help others led me to a nursing career followed by a photography business and now a vacation rental host. Helping others experience joy together is my jam.
