Everything was nice. One of the big things that need updated are the upstairs mattresses. They should be queen (not double) for 2 adults it’s not big enough and also they are very hard. Our backs were hurting.

Beautiful Property
We had a wonderful stay here as a family of six. A beautiful and quiet setting. The children loved creek stomping and the toys, books and games provided entertainment on a rainy day. Both the fire pit area and the front porch provided great places to relax outside while the children played in the yard and on the playset. The host keeps a very clean property and has thought of lots of extras to make it a comfortable stay. Highly recommended!

Wonderful and Quiet stay in the beauty of nature!
Janita was a great host, and our family enjoyed a great time! Very quiet and peaceful area, with a nice creek and lots of wildlife around! Host was very responsive, and helpful, and even had a wonderful local treat there for us when we arrived. Definitely hope to stay again sometime.
