We block Tuesday night through Wednesday morning for cleaning… So no problem if you want to stay more than a week… We will gladly remove the block for you! :-)
We had three families that met here simply because it was a good location and we had heard good things from friends that used it. In short, we really enjoyed the stay and found it to be very relaxing and fun! Main pros: Comfortable, well-kept, lots of space to spread out, Blackstone grill was perfect for burgers/eggs/French toast/sausage/bacon, small above-ground pool got used a lot, pickleball, volleyball, feeding the ducks and fish, fishing, etc. Steve was great to work with and was a gracious host. He gave us plenty of space while responding quickly when we needed him. We had a very enjoyable stay!
We were there with our three kids and their families and my brothers and their wives and a nephew. Great place for the get together. Steve was the ultimate host and made sure we were comfortable. We are already talking about doing it again.
4 families gathered here and had a grand time. There is something for everyone and more. Property is amazing and our host Steve was over the top. Plenty of space, great kitchen and everything the kids could want. Can't wait to go back.
Steve is so nice and chill, so much to do on property we loved it
The perfect place to relax and get away with family and friends. So many amenities to keep the family busy the entire stay. Indoor pickleball court was a hit with the kids and adults. The vast wooded area with trails for the kids to explore. So many little things that made this property special that I cant list them all. So many little details that we discovered more and more each day of our stay. We will definitely be back again soon!!!
Perfect property for our extended family reunion with 4 families and ages ranging from 70 to newborn. Check in was easy and the owner was available to show us around the large property and answer questions. Property is well kept up and the house was very clean. (They contract a local company to sanitize all bedding and towels between guests and drain the entire hot tub between guests) Though it was only 30-50 in the evenings we still enjoyed the hot tub a couple times. (It’s a really nice one with lots of bells and whistles.)The barn was a great hit with the kids during our stay. Played lots of pickle ball in there but also brought a laser tag set and played that one night. You can also bring remote control cars and race in there! There is so much to do on the property the kids never got bored! They played on the supplied Xbox, board games, ping pong, football, basketball, pickle ball, fished, and hiked. (You will need worms and a pole though if you want to fish.) There are lots of outdoor games we didn’t take advantage of; but definitely lots to do! The house was well stocked with tp, paper towels, soaps and even breakfast food to get us started that first morning! The kitchen is well appointed with a Keurig, a separate drip coffee pot, black stone griddle, full set of pots and pans, and enough space for us to make and serve Thanksgiving Dinner! We definitely took advantage of the spare fridge in the barn to store all the food! Walmart, another local grocer, Starbucks, pharmacies, thrift stores, and lots of other shopping are all within 20 minutes. The owners are kind and readily available when needed, but also respectful and gave us space to enjoy our time together as a family. They brought over bread and an amazing local jelly the first night and made sure we had their contact information if we needed anything. It was an outstanding stay from start to finish and we hope to return again for another reunion in the future!
We met our best friends at this property, altogether we had 4 adults and 8 kids (ages 5 - 13). The house has so many things for the kids to do... foosball, pool, xbox, Ping-Pong and board games. The house is huge and was perfect for our group. The bedrooms are spread out down 2 different hallways and the basement, so not everyone woke up the minute the first person in the house was awake. This made us a well-rested happy group. The dining room has 2 big tables, convenient for our group of 12. The kitchen was very well stocked with extra spices and things we forgot to bring (like sugar for our coffee). We used the flat griddle outside on the deck for our breakfast every morning. The deck was a great place to read book while looking at the pond fountain. The screened in porch was nice for sipping coffee and playing cards at the little table. The things to do on the property... I cant even name everything. We had gorgeous fall weather so we had campfires, the little boys caught frogs and lizards in the pond, lawn games and hot tubbing, we walked the mowed trails and a few kids even had rides from Steve and Betsy on the golf cart. The barn is up the hill a little bit. It has water, a bathroom and a fridge/freezer in the small kitchen area. Here we played LOTS of pickleball, had a birthday party and the kids rode scooters, skateboards, hoverboards and drove RC cars that we brought from home. The kids had so much to do that they fell into bed exhausted every night. As parents we enjoyed seeing them in nature and having a wonderful time playing together and hanging out. The owners live up the hill a bit and were so kind. I've rented a lot of VRBO's and have never met the homeowners before. Steve & Betsy were just the icing on the cake. They had fresh bread and local jelly waiting for us when we arrived (you may want to rent just for this alone) and were so attentive to us the entire time. They went above and beyond to connect with our kids and were so sweet. Seriously, just adopt us Steve & Betsy. We'll start the paperwork. Haha! Would we go back? Heck YES! We are already talking about when we can work that in. Book this place, I know you will love it! But it may not be available, because we may already be there.
The listing pictures don’t come close to all this property has to offer! Steve and Betsy have given great thought to every detail/need anyone could need. The house is not only gorgeous inside and out, but perfectly suited for all ages. Big and small kids loved the game room, ping pong and foosball, and checker tournaments. The kitchen provided the room for family conversation as mom (happily) cooked for the family, perfectly stocked with all the culinary needs. Our daughter's wedding was held on the pond dock. We were able to decorate as the happy couple desired. Grandpas Barn…OH.MY.GOODNESS!!!! We hosted the reception in the barn but could have easily been the wedding venue. Gorgeous inside and out, unique and traditional details at every turn. LOVED the washtub sinks in the kitchen and bathrooms! A beautiful outdoor swing and benches adorned the covered porch, fall decor at the double door entrance to the barn, details, details, details everywhere! We WILL be back for family gatherings in the coming years. Thank you, Betsy and Steve…kudos all the way around!
This home is so much more than we could have ever imagined. It has every possible thing that you could possibly need or want. It is beyond anyone's expectations. Steve and Betsy went above and beyond and were so very sweet. We can't wait to go back next year!!!
We enjoyed all the amenities that this home offers. Steve and Betsy are awesome hosts! All the kids were entertained, there was something for every age! We loved the lodge and will be going back!
