Judy was so welcoming, friendly, and courteous! The property was clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable, quiet, and close to Garden of the God's, multiple trails, and restaurants. The hot tub was ready, plenty of privacy, and up to temp when we arrived. It was perfect after hiking all afternoon. Would definitely come back and recommend to anyone!

The stay was perfect! Great communication with the host. I actually met the host and she was very polite, cheerful - just a delight. The place was spotless and quaint and there was a treat welcoming us. Information was left for what to do in the area and instructions were very clear for check out.The outdoor setting was beautiful, relaxing, and private. If in the area again, I would love to stay there again.
