"Host was wonderful and extremely helpful throughout our stay. They were responsive in a timely manner with any questions we had. Home was exceptionally clean and smelled wonderful upon arriving. The home was as pictured and the “game zone” in the basement was amazing! The children played all day every day down there for hours and was so fun! It was the perfect house for what we needed and location is convenient to many restaurants and shops you may need. There is a walking trail and playground located right by the house that was fun to use! We also set outside by the fire out every night which was beautiful and peaceful with the scenery in the backyard. I would recommend this home and host and we would stay there again!"

Loved and enjoyed meal prep for family and friends in the spacious and accommodating kitchen with an island that sat six, as a result never experienced FOMO (fear of missing out). We also had a blast playing pool until wee hours of the night and the upstairs bedrooms couldn't hear all the laughter and billiard balls clanking around. Would definitely book again."

"Our group of 7 and one dog loved our 4 night stay over New Years. The host was very responsive and accommodating, and the Airbnb was very comfortable. We had some very late nights around New Years and the high quality curtains in each room allowed us to sleep late into the day when we needed to. The neighborhood was quiet and we averaged 30 minutes of driving to get to the various attractions we attended in town. Lovely place!"
