We enjoyed our week here as a family before dropping our son off at college. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We even got to see deer grazing in the yard. Hosts were very responsive and helpful.

This was the perfect place to stay for a girl's weekend: it had everything we could possibly want. It's clean, beautiful, and the host was wonderful to communicate with. We had such a great time in the pool, using the firepit, making dinners, and relaxing here. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone!

Never have we been so sad to leave a vacation! Amy and Troy were accessible, welcoming, and responsive. The home was just what we needed and all of which we dreamed. We loved the cabin, decorations, colors, feel, dishes, sheets, view, privacy, cleanliness, wildlife, and all that this mountain home had to offer. You had everything we needed from pads of paper for notes, our favorite coffee, soft towels, a well stocked kitchen and so many details were covered. All we could say over and over was "What great house – this is a dream house – we love the location – we love the house!" We will definitely book with Amy and Troy again. Keep up the good work.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin over Memorial Day weekend. The home was exactly as pictured – very clean, well maintained, and equipped with all the essentials (coffee maker, towels, etc.) along with great amenities like a heated pool, hot tub, and pool table, all in excellent condition.The location was ideal being about 15 minutes from downtown Amherst while remaining secluded and relaxing. The owners were responsive and easy to communicate with, and the check-in/check-out process was a breeze. Overall, the property exceeded our expectations, and we hope to be back again!

The house is GORGEOUS, immaculate, and outfitted with everything needed from cooking hardware to soft towels to lovely toiletries to comfy beds to several coffee appliance options. Big, clean fridge.

Fun activities only an hour or less away (kayaking, biking). Many local wineries.5. This place met and EXCEEDED our expectations! Highly recommend.
