Beautiful property, inside and out! The neighborhood kitties were a nice addition our 1st night, we returned from an outing to see 3 or 4 deer in the driveway! I'd love to return in the summer to take full advantage of the lake, the amazing front porch, and the fire pit.

A lovely stay! Welcoming and a comfortable “at home” felling. Nicely decorated with attention to everything you need for your stay and very clean. We enjoyed breakfast on the porch with birds and butterflies stopping by and evenings around the fire. The location was good for touring the Mammoth area.

Great stay. open concept of main area was great for hanging out. Kitchen had all the needed pots/pans/etc. Quiet and away from touristy areas so did need to drive a decent amount but that’s what we wanted. House was clean and host were easy to communicate with.
