Location was great for traveling out for hikes. Beautiful yard and good space for our family. My only issue was it could have been more clear in the booking that all amenities are shared spaces. It was also not clear whether we had rented the upper or lower space, we figured it out on arrival. Host provided driving instructions were helpful.

Such a great find! The place was pristine, the instructions were clear and the hot tub in the woods under the fairy lights was the perfect place to unwind after full days hiking and sight seeing! The host offered, clear, easy to follow directions to the listing and we had no issues! Would absolutely recommended this listing and will be staying again!

Wonderful home nestled in the forest. I highly recommend staying here. Lots of privacy and very quiet, yet minutes away from town. This home offers you the best of both worlds. Driving directions were easy to follow. Check-in was smooth. The hosts communicated in a timely manner. The kitchen had everything we needed. They also had family games to play which was a nice touch. The internet worked well. We hope to come back again.
