All the privacy you need in the mountains.....

Patty responded promptly when I booked and accommodated my fee schedule request. While the pictures in the listing are accurate as to the inside of the house, the outside was anything but. We are a bunch of outdoor loving people and we didn't want to be outside at all. The weeds were overgrown, the flowers were totally dead and dried out and some of the furniture was falling apart. There is yellow caution tape wrapped around portions of the deck. The covering over part of the deck was ripped off and hanging by a nail. It would appear that the owner purchased it, lived in it for a time and then simply left. There are personal belongings everywhere, including bank statements, receipts and a gun in the closet. There is simply too much stuff, if un-useable pots, pans, crock pots, etc. were removed and clutter was removed so there is room for guests belongings it would be almost perfect inside the house. The 4 bedrooms were spacious and the mattresses were comfortable. We all slept well. The bathrooms were large and functional though one of them had odd handles on the shower that didn't have an end point. There was a learning curve when it came to trying to turn the water off. If you need a 4 bedroom place and aren't going to spend a lot of time there it's a good spot. But, if you want to hang out on the decks and BBQ dinner, I'd look for some place else. This gem has such potential and looks as though it was beautiful in it's heyday. Right now it just needs a bit of love and care.

First time ever that we were hugely dissatisfied with Home Away rental. Unclean and cluttered. We (4 adults) spent the first evening cleaning the rooms we would use most, kitchens baths and bedrooms, including stripping and laundering bedding, mopping floors and washing in/out refrigerator. The oven and range hood dirty beyond use. This was communicated to owners at the time. We paid a cleaning fee as part of rental and commented on this to owners who indicated they had problems with recent cleaning crew. It was clear that no one had cleaned even so far as to ensure beds and bathrooms were done. Blinds on all windows were layered with dust, doilies on every surface, lifted and dust design was left behind. Decks in disrepair and outside furniture needed to be cleaned before used. The list is long and could say more. Instead chalking this up to a ‘live and learn’ experience to be shared.

A wonderful and peaceful location that has been made to feel very comfortable and inviting. Very efficient kitchen.
