Great place to stay. Been there twice now!

Everything about our stay was exactly what we expected. The only hiccup was that the hot tub needed to be cleaned but the host got someone out to clean it early the first business day of our stay. We were looking for secluded romance and that is what we got.

Great place all around!
8 / 10Excellent·Feb 2026
We booked as a group of 10 for the weekend and the beds/bathrooms were all perfect. The kitchen isn't 100% suited for large groups in terms of the size/number of pots/pans provided. However, they had lots of plates/utensils/bowls which made the everything besides cooking very easy. The space is really large and accommodates 10 people easily. The hot-tub was unfortunately broken and we didn't know until we arrived. However, after troubleshooting with the host they were able to work through a partial refund which was heavily appreciated. Super responsive host and check in was smooth!
