Nice older home with a beautiful backyard to sit in and visit. Comfortable to relax and an excellent collection of vinyl music to listen to. Will take this house over a hotel anytime. The atmosphere and the ability to visit at your leisure is well worth the price.

This is a huge home with plenty of space! We loved the fenced in backyard for our poodle. This home has a lot of character and felt cozy. Nice stay, close to everything.

Spacious comfortable older home
The house has lots of room to spread out or gather together with one another. We enjoyed watching a movie on the giant TV and the sun room and screened porch were my favorite.

Close to Shawnee National Forest.
Charming older home with plenty of room! The purpose of our trip was to hike in the Shawnee National Forest, and the house was conveniently located to all that we wanted to do. The house is very close to town (within walking distance), but we did not do much there except for having breakfast at the Steam Cafe, which I highly recommend!

Close to everything!
The property, while an older home, was very clean and comfortable. The backyard is fenced, but it is really not suitable for a dog to run free in as there are several places it could get out. I loved the screened porch and watching the dozens of squirrels in the backyard.
