Not secluded but near-perfect
Only two things prevented me from giving a 5-star rating—1) I try to identify quiet and secluded rentals. The impression we were given was a country house on 5 acres, when the reality is several houses are visible and a main highway wraps around the property like a horseshoe. So there is road noise outside and not a feeling of country seclusion at all, however, the beautiful setting was still mostly quiet and the impeccably tasteful and comfortable house are nothing short of divine. 2) For some reason the hot water heater only provided us with 10 minute showers. In such a large house equipped for so many guests (ours had 5) one would think a tankless hot water heater or a larger tank would be a no-brainer. The WiFi/TV entertainment system was also not adequate during our stay but that seemed the exception rather than the norm. With those issues fixed, it would have been absolutely perfect.
That said, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, the stunning architecture, the wild outdoor beauty, the snow on the ground even when Leavenworth had none, the sledding hill, a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of blankets and pillows, top notch heating throughout the house as well as heated floors. Truly, a memorable experience and one of the very best stays we have ever enjoyed as a family. Would definitely love to come back!
