Summary:

Welcome to your private retreat on 9 acres of natural beauty! Once home to a famous YouTuber (guess who!), this spacious property is a fun-filled playground featuring a Bass Pond stocked with Tilapia for catch-and-release or catch-and-keep fishing, as well as a designated swimming area. Enjoy the Rock Wall, Diving Platform, Arcade Games, and plenty of open grass for sports or events. Play arcade games in the garage or work out in the full gym located in the basement. Perfect for bachelorette parties, holiday gatherings, work retreats, and content creation—this space is your ultimate playground for fun and creativity!



The Space:

This home features an open-concept design with a spacious living room and a fully equipped kitchen, perfect for family gatherings and events. The main floor includes two bedrooms, one being the master suite with a soaking tub (please note the jets are currently not operational). The second main-floor bedroom, located next to the master, has two twin beds. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms—two with queen-size beds and one with a full-size bed—sharing a single bathroom. A large loft area overlooks the downstairs fireplace and rock-climbing wall, adding to the home's open and inviting atmosphere.



For remote work or creative endeavors, there's a dedicated office space providing a quiet, focused environment. Fitness enthusiasts will love the basement's fully equipped gym, perfect for maintaining workout routines.



Outside, enjoy a large deck with seating, arcade games in the garage, and a pond with a diving platform, rock wall, and catch-and-release fishing—don’t forget your fishing gear! Once owned by a famous YouTuber and featured in multiple videos, this property is perfect for family getaways or group retreats, offering both privacy and unique charm.



🐾 Pet Policy – Please Read



We’re happy to welcome your furry friends! If you plan to bring a pet, please make sure to select the “Pet” option when booking. An additional pet fee applies.



Note: Some booking platforms now include this fee in the total cost without breaking it out separately. In those cases, you won’t see a separate pet fee listed—but your overall price will simply be increased by the pet fee amount.



Thank you for helping us keep our space clean and enjoyable for all guests—two-legged and four-legged alike!

Very fun property! They even left us some cookies and snacks to start our stay. It is in need of a little TLC, but overall very nice, clean, and I would recommend.

Beautiful house! Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen. The pond was so much fun for the kids and adults! We also really enjoyed the gym in the basement and the arcade games. There was plenty of space for our big family. The host is responsive. Excellent stay! Highly recommend.

The house is nice and open. There is 5 bedrooms that sleeps 10 people and the living room has a pull out couch. The house was clean.The kitchen could use a few more plates and silverware.
