Great location for our small family plus dog. The hosts thought of everything you could possibly need or want. The cabin is cute and comfortable even the little loft bed which our daughter loved. The property is very peaceful and quiet and we enjoyed sitting outside and watching the owls.

Melanie and Dan’s tiny house was quaint, quiet and stocked better than any VRBO we have rented. They were quick to respond to any questions we had and my husband really enjoyed his conversations with Dan about his tiny house projects. They treated us like family and we hope to stay there again when we visit Archer.

Melanie was incredibly quick to respond to our pre-check-in questions and the home was perfection. From the bottled water in the refrigerator to the fun board games, gas firepit, and hammock this property was outstanding. I am a VP of Hospitality in the hotel industry, so I am very particular, and this tiny home hit all the marks for us!

This home was super cute. The unit was very clean and had many supplies: towels, wash cloths, extra bedding, extra pillows, paper products, waters, everything you expect and more. At night we saw the owls which were so cool. The firepit was awesome, its gated, we felt safe. Hosts were very responsive. We stayed 2 nights and will definitely rent this unit again when we are in the area.
