Overall lovely, just minor repairs necessary. Bathroom mold, couches broken, damp but neat basement.
Clean private property, exceptional hosts, fully private. Wonderful space. They even offered and had wood stocked for a fire!
We were very pleased with this property. Thank you for your quick responses to our questions.
Had a joint bachelor/ette party here and it was perfect for us. House is much bigger than the photos suggest. Wooded area with a lot of space between houses ment that we didnt have to worry much about disturbing neighbors with noise. Host was very quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had.
I held an event here for 13 friends and the house suited my needs well. It was very large and well stocked and there was plenty of space for everyone to sleep and hang out. I ran into no major issues and the host was communicative and friendly. Make sure you bring food, though, as the closest market is quite a drive. Minor issues I had: there was a lot of bugs around, to be expected in the middle of summer but there was quite a few dead bugs around the house. The jacuzzi seems like it hadn't been run in a while as the pipes let out some dirt. The basement is extremely echo-ey, to the point you can't have a conversation. There also isn't central air, so the house got warm with so many people.
My group’s time at this house could not have been better. The pictures on the listing did not even do it justice as there was so much more to it when we arrived. Everything was super clean and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone!
Very peaceful and wonderful owner who connects with you.
I and four friends ventured up here in the midst of winter and experienced a wonderful retreat. James was a great host! Very responsive and organized. The house is probably bigger than it looks in the photos. When the plague times end I would certainly consider coming back with a larger group.
We were a group of 10 people (+ 2 dogs) who stayed here over New Years' weekend. James was quick to respond to our questions before our stay and even sent over a few videos of the space - which did not do it justice! Upstairs there are 2 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms, most of which have enough room for another couple to sleep on an air mattress if needed. There were plenty of these in the closets. The downstairs area included a half bath, a big eat-in kitchen, a separate dining room with a HUGE adjustable table that fit all of us, a living room with a large TV, and a second family room for lounging or doing puzzles. The space was minimalistic yet included everything we needed. Super clean & easy check-in process. There was also a large, finished, unfurnished basement where we let our dogs run around since we got hit with some crummy weather. Thank you for hosting us, James!
The only thing that would have made it a happier Thanksgiving would be knowing that just about EVERYTHING was there already! I didn't use most of what I packed. You would need to bring any special items you need - like platters or serving bowls, but they even had tupperware to borrow, plenty of plates, dishes, utensils and kitchen items (dish towels, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, hand soap, pot holders) plus basic spices...and lots of garbage cans/bags/recycling bins available. To further update other reviews - wifi was great - there are two rooms to hang out in, one set up like a theatre (Netflix and streaming tv available) and the other is more like a sitting room so just a nice place to sit and chat over coffee or sit back and have some wine. James advised me to bring extra towels though plenty were provided as was quality bedding for all four queen sized beds. He was great about communicating with me and is a top notch property manager that has upgraded everything (It rained so we could not take advantage of the fire pit he added but there was wood, kindling etc in the garage for use.) and made this a really great place to rent for family and friends. The pictures don't do justice - the house is huge! We were very comfortable and so relaxed in this beautiful mountain home...off the beaten path and very peaceful. I would definitely recommend to family and friends. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
