    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Octagon House! It was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The decks were so relaxing and enjoyable The location was great! The property is private but not isolated! Very convenient! The property owner, Kelli, was very quick to respond and accommodate when we reached out to inquire about extending our stay by a night. We definitely hope to stay again in the future.

    Adorable quirky home with great views. Felt so homey like you were staying at grandma's house. Even the mirror was octagon. Easy to get to and Kelli was great to work with!

    This is our second time staying at the Octagon House and it did not disappoint. It is clean, well-stocked, convenient, and has beautiful views. My best friend and I stayed there with our four young children and there was plenty of space for everyone.

    This is a great property with a amazing view, It was a total different plan from what we were used to. But we and the kids loved the stay and the view was amazing and the drive was really smooth to the property and they had the essential stuff that was needed for cooking, Games and books for the kids.

    It was clean, well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed, great shower (didn't use the tub upstairs), large deck downstairs and small deck upstairs. The view was amazing! We hope to stay there again and again in the future. Be sure to follow directions and look for the mailbox so you will know where to turn right onto gravel road. There is a large house on left and a house on the right as you go down the gravel drive.
