Beautiful and cozy indoor and outdoor spaces!

We really enjoyed our stay at Wanderlust Woods! There were so many cozy spaces with cushions, blankets and/or candles - inside and outside of this home! The host was very kind, thoughtful, offered wonderful suggestions and always responded quickly to questions. There were special touches in every room! The home is very easy to find and is located close to several major highways. We are looking forward to our next stay!

Overall Great Experience

We had a wonderful time with our special guests at this nice location. The aesthetics in the venue were as the photos, very vibrant and soothing plus the constant nice aroma. We look forward to coming back again and staying with another group of friends. Stacey was very kind with great communication throughout our stay and assist with some items. I recommend this location with a small group, the outdoors was a plus especially with the firepit to enjoy smores at night. Will Inov8Studios & Xhunger.com

Fun stay!

We stayed 2 nights with our 10 & 8 year old. They loved all the lights, decor & the outdoor space. The place was well stocked with warm blankets, tea/coffee/hot cocoa, as well as wood and stuff to make s'mores. It was a cool, rainy weekend but we were very cozy. Enjoyed the game room as well. The home is very close to the interstate, which you can hear when outdoors, but is also a convenience as you able to get anywhere around town quickly. Host was responsive and easy to get in touch with.
