Nice, Cozy

It had a homey feel and was clean. Kitchen was not as well-stocked as other places we’ve stayed, but was fine for us. Decor was nice. Plenty of space and places to sit while not overly crowded with furniture. There is a grocery store nearby. Overall we have enjoyed it.

We had a wonderful stay. The house was welcoming and the outside was well kept and relaxing. I would recommend putting a reflector at the driveway entrance. It's very dark at night and we had a hard time seeing the driveway. 100% recommend this house and would stay again.

Rustic Retreat

Our overall stay was good. The home was decorated with super cute decorations. It felt very home like and there was enough room for us all. Plenty of blankets and towels. My only suggestions are regarding a few minor things that would only help improve for future visitors. (maybe even us again next year) The back of tub was very slippery with the soft water. I’d like to suggest offering a slip resistant mat or tub stickers. My son had an incident and slipped. Although, not at all hurt. There was a quite a bit of dust, debris, bugs, and pet hair behind the futon and underneath both beds. It could use a good sweeping/vacuum. Also, 3 single rolls of toilet paper for 3 adults and two boys for an entire week didn’t last. I did go out and purchase a double roll pack and left a partially used roll behind for the next guests use. :)
