We stayed here for my son's wedding in New Era. It was a great place for our group. It was a little challenging to drive to, but the area was beautiful in the fall.

Very spacious..only ended up with 7 guests so there was more than enough space to prep for my daughter’s wedding! Kitchen table was probably the most used space as we had assembly line, bouquets, guests gift boxes and even all the bridesmaids doing makeup there before the wedding. All rooms and bathrooms were clean though the carpets could use a good steam. Beds were very comfortable and house was well appointed. I would add you should have cleaning crews blow out the garage weekly as the sand and dirt tends to get tracked in easily.

Wonderful Home
We had a really good time, the house is beautiful very spacious and we loved the fire pit. The scenery was wonderful and we enjoyed seeing the deer. Good and peaceful location and kind neighbors. The water in the house was a bit cold whilst taking showers or baths but it wasn’t that big of a problem. Overall we had a wonderful stay at this house!
