Nothing was lacking in this lovely, spacious home. The country setting was perfect, yet driveable to most places you’d want or need to go. We would definitely stay here again!

Excellent Family Home
This was a great place for our short weekend vacation. The main drawback was that the playground advertised was not there. We brought the toddlers in ready to go play, and there was no playground.

No Surprises
My family gathered to celebrate mom's 70th birthday. We got exactly what we expected. The listing was accurate, the house was clean, and the manager was easy to deal with. It was everything we wanted and expected, with no surprises. We would happily stay there again! Thanks, Scott

Perfect house for a big group
Worked perfectly for our group that was in town for an event at Heartland Motorsport park. The bedrooms were all very nice and the extra beds in the basement made it all work for our group so everyone had their own space. Kitchen was well appointed and TV area worked well for a movie at the end of the day.
