Pros- nice home, beautiful property, nice bedrooms, hosts 10, good games available to play, kitchen well-stocked. Cons- the kitchen was infested with mice, and also a squirrel. Mouse droppings were all over the kitchen. I caught 4 mice in just a few days with traps. Electronic mouse deterrents were in place, but were ineffective.
My sister and I loved the house. It was very clean, with lots of room and very quiet. We woke up every morning and watched the horses. I will definitely be booking this house again in the future for my husband and my self. Thank you for a great vacation.
We are a fairly large and busy family of 6. We also had our friend and his 2 kids along. We loved that the house was close enough to lakes and hiking. Far enough to feel just the quiet calm of nature, but not enough that we couldn't make quick trips to the store if need be. We loved that the kids could play outside with no worries at all. The house itself is a quaint old farmhouse. We appreciated all of its charm. I personally loved having my coffee and wine on the porch watching the sun rise and fall each day. All in all i would say if you want some time to quiet your mind in this is the perfect place to go.
The place was clean and comfortable. It was a beautiful old vintage house. We loved our stay! It was close to all our activities. Thank you!
