    This is a lovely and relaxing space. Fully fenced and pet friendly. The house is comfortable and relaxing. The sulfur water felt really great on my skin. Yes it’s smelly, but I knew that going into it and it was not a problem at all for me. Full amenities and private. I really recommend it to anyone looking for a getaway. Short drives to downtown for shopping or dining out. I had a couple of snafu in the beginning with the code getting in but The host responded right away. Communication with her was very easy and very responsive. I hope to book the house again next year. It’s a great midway point for me and my friend to meet.

    Our family went and enjoyed this wonderful property. Very relaxing and they had everthing we needed or forgot to bring. The sulfur smell was strong as other reviews stated but we were able to have a fun time and forgot about it.

    Everything was as expected and nice overall! I don't think we will go again as the main draw was the hotspring soaker tubs. The heater was out for the room and only half of the adorable 2 claw foot soak tubs filled with hot water. We tried boiling water on the stove but the room was so cold that it made it impossible to get enough hot water before the water in the tub was cold. 2 hours I finally gave up. I did get a morning soak but no doubles in the winter! The owner was nice and everything was overall good. Just need a good water heater for winter travelers!

    Nice and quiet location with big yard, comfortable beds and all the amenities at hand. One bad point is the sulfur smell in the water but bottled water is provided.

    This is a difficult review for me, since it is my first negative review. We had such high hopes for this place. The location is great, the house had plenty of room & the outside area was amazing along with the views. However when we arrived, we quickly noticed that other than the most used areas the house was dirty (window seals, blinds, laundry room & under some beds) as well as it was infested with spiders. There were spider webs & spiders in every room, including just above bunk beds which didn’t help my kids get that warm and fuzzy feeling going to sleep, even after I helped clean the area. Frankly – our group ended up with several spider bites & at one point - one ran across my chest while I was trying to go to sleep. Fortunately, I smooshed him but it also didn’t help the going to sleep process. Another negative for this place is the sulfur smell associated to all water sources for the house. I should have read the previous reviews closer since I thought the smell would be isolated to the mineral bath, but all water sources in the house (both sides) had a strong sulfur smell. To a point, most of us didn’t shower or only showered once while we were there. Using the washing machine also made the main area smell for an extended period of time. In general using showers the smell didn’t stick around for long, and when I showered I don’t think I smelt like sulfur, or what my kids called a fart smell, but my kids didn’t like it and it was strong enough for my one visitor to step outside to talk versus inside. Lastly – they had a handy man working on the property about 4 days during our visit. This is normally fine, given the property is large and I understand some maintenance needs to happen (watering, trimming, etc…) but it was always at about 7:30am and would always wake our kids.

    Great place! 6 adults stayed here for a long weekend and it suited our needs perfectly. The home was very clean and had everything we needed. It felt like a home with the quilts on the walls also. Plenty of showers and hot water for everyone. Some of us could smell the sulfur while showering, some couldn't. We certainly didn't smell it on ourselves afterwards. The place had plenty of drinking water provided. The setting is very relaxing. We heard coyotes one night, cows another. Will definitely stay here again.

    Loved the solitude, privacy, views and comfort! We expected the water smell to be horrible then it turned out not to be so bad.
