Fun place to stay
Enjoyed staying here. There were some slight inconveniences. Lost power the 2nd day to half the container. Outside could have been cleaned up better. But fun place to stay.

Out of the way Weekend
We wanted an out of the way, inexpensive alternative to camping and this was great! We will definitely stay again. A little spartan, but it fits the price range.

More than meets the eye
Great experience. Peaceful and serene. Close to town. If you are going to stay here, just make note there is no microwave. Not an issue at all but plan for it. We will definitely stay here again.

Sheets were Dirty
Let me just say I am 68 yrs old & have been using VRBO for about 30 yrs. Never had a bad experience till now & never given a negative review. First of all it needs to be in the listing that the toilet is a Composting Toilet. I understand the concept of that however it needs to be in the listing. When I got ready to go to bed the sheets had not been changed out from the previous occupant. I slept on the top sheet & wrapped up with a towel. If you want to watch TV there are not any comfortable chairs. It has 2 Straight up Ladder Back Chairs that are not comfortable to set in. Or you can sit on the floor or bed. I was booked for 2 nights but I was gone by 8:00 the following morning. Stayed there about 14 hrs. I did reach out to the owner on Saturday & his response was. I will speak to the cleaner to see what's going on & sorry for your inconvenience. That's it. I did reach out to VRBO & they were very kind. All they can do is send a email to the owner. So I have waited 3 days & since the owner has not responded back to me I am posting my review. Again I hate to give a negative review but in this case I had no choice.

Amazing and unique getaway
My husband and I stayed here while we were in the area for a wedding. The property is so unique and comfortable. There are surrounding areas to hike and also plenty of vineyards/wineries. It was nice being able to bring our dogs. We plan to go back.

Relaxation
We were in the area for a softball tournament and wanted to find somewhere relaxing to stay. This place was exactly that. We were able to spend time together just my husband and I after the games. It was clean and updated and very enjoyable. We will definitely stay again!
