    I enjoyed the quiet area the property was located in. The view of the horses and a few ponies from the front steps was definitely a plus. The house was one of the cleanest places we have ever stayed. The code for entry was a nice touch for not having to meet a person for access. Our main concern was the road the property was on. It is my understanding that private roads are the responsibility of the home owners to maintain but this one was by far the worst of all the private roads we saw. The land/ home owners definitely need to pitch in to fix it. Almost no gravel remained and the pot holes were deep, wide, and numerous. We were in a 4x4 vehicle and would not recommend this for a small car. As fas the house goes, it was comfortable but would have liked a closet upstairs or at least some kind of clothing rack to hang items on. We are less than 5’6” tall and sometimes hit our heads on the sloped ceilings. Aside from these things the stay was enjoyable and we had a relaxing time away from the norm.

    We entered into a very clean house. The kitchen had essential equipment for cooking The location was great, having a Dollar General nearby for general needs and nice shops, both in walking distance. We could see ponies through the trees on the deck. There is a pony center very close by. I highly recommend On A Whim.

    Great place! Just a few notes for traveling comfort: Master bedroom has a floor fan, bring a fan for the other rooms. The kids room in particular gets toasty. Bring extra TP and trash bags, you’ll likely need them. If you’re already bringing bedding and towels, I’d throw in a bath rug for upstairs in front of the mirror. FYI:The rental had extra throw blankets which I appreciated. The master (upstairs) bed is one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in while traveling.

    Only issue we had were that the beds were hard for us. May not bother others!

    It was like a home away from home. There were a lot of things the host seemed to consider that people would need on their vacation and not want to worry about or go without. The place was very nice and well cleaned.
