I stayed with several of my friends for a week and I must say, the property was exactly as described. This was one of the best times we've had! The pictures didn't do it justice! We even had a bowl of fruit and wine as a welcome! Loved It! Would definitely stay here again!
To get to the parking area in the back of the house, you need to drive through the yard on the right side of the house from the main road (there is a slight bit of driveway entrance there). There is a ditch that runs across the front yard, but there is a culvert on that side that will allow you to drive to the back.
I was looking for an email with the door code and instructions when I should have been looking for a text. Follow the instructions for the lock regardless of any extra beeps you may hear. They will work. The extra beeping threw me for a loop at first.
We used the two bedrooms out of three with large beds. The beds were comfortable and caused no sleep issues. This house is close to a main road in town, but neither of us were bothered by road noise. The back patio is roomy and a nice place to hang out if you want to spend some time outside. The living room was plenty roomy for the two of us to spread out to enjoy movies during our down time. We did not use the kitchen, but it appeared that utensils and other cooking equipment were fairly sparse. The parking area behind the house was well lit and the house sits on a large lot with a lot of open space around it. This helps with the feeling of security of the house and vehicles. Overall, I would stay here again if/when the need arises.

From the Owner: "Thank you for your great feedback. We are constantly making improvements to the property to make a more enjoyable stay for our guests. We like to send our guests a text/email thirty minutes before arrival with the information to access the property. The battery for the door code was causing the issue with beeping and has since been changed. You are welcome back anytime."
