This was a well stocked, well thought out and beautiful place to stay. I will stay there as often as I can when I go up to the mountains. There are five of us who stayed and we were all impressed with the place.
I would 100% recommend staying here. The owners were accommodating and very quick to respond to any questions. The house is adorable and stocked with everything you could need and more. We will be coming back!
We loved our stay! The location was absolutely perfect and beautiful. This place blew my expectations away with the amenities and cleanliness. My son loved all of the board games ! Everything was on par with our expectations for a comfortable stay and enjoyable weekend! Will definitely book again.
Great, well furnished home directly across from Veritas. Had three children under 6, and the home was well equipped to handle all ages. The backyard was full of activities, plenty of child friendly accomdations, and very close and convienent to plenty of wineries, breweries, and hiking!
