About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I am a Hurricane Helene survivor. I ended up in a tree as my house took 4 feet of water inside destroying everything that makes a home a home. I bought Serenity to provide a safe haven & escape from the challenges of a typical life. It is extremely important for me to provide a a great experience for all my renters.

Why they chose this property

The house is tucked away in the woods & only has two visible neighbors on the 2.5 acre parcel. There are two small creeks to cool your feet in & where you can look for salamanders & crawdads. Two decks where you can find the morning or afternoon sun & the tranquility Serenity offers. The babbling creeks, health forest, & local flora & fauna makes you feel your are in a state park. I have a resident White Squirrel that frequents the trees surrounding the house. The screened in porch is the perfect place for dinner that you can prepare in the fully outfitted kitchen! The master bedroom has an incredible view of sunrises right from the bed as you ease into the day.

What makes this property unique
