mbrace nature in this bright home that has gorgeous views to the lake and forest
Our home has been decorated in a modern Coastal/boho style and furnished to be a perfect getaway. We have high-quality beds, natural linens, bamboo pillows and comfortable couch and chairs in the living room.

Our Third Bedroom has a Gravity mattress for people who prefer firm mattresses. (Please know most of our bed frames are lower to the ground, with the exception of one.) Enjoy the heated tile floors in the living room and our heated towel rack in the bathroom.
You have access to the whole property, with the exception of the Basement shop area which is locked and has the garden supplies in there. And the hallways right-hand closet that also has a lock.
Things to know before booking: -The house is built in the side of a mountain and to get to the front door you have to go up a few set of steps. -Two of the bed frames and and the couch are low to the ground. Two of the bedrooms are in the second floor of the house. -During Fall and Winter months there are wind storms quite often, and in Sudden Valley this might mean you will lose electricity for a time. This is usually resolved quickly, but please keep this in mind. Sudden valley is peaceful, surrounded by nature, but it also lacks of some of the big city comforts. A perfect getaway if you want peace and quiet and beautiful views. -During winter time you will have to salt the steps of the house as they might get icy, and will need to shovel the snow if this happens during your stay. We will provide the equipment. -The house has a wood stove which is amazing and warms the home, but you will need to get your own wood if the one provided runs out. -This is a pet friendly home. Our cleaner does her best to remove all fur from all surfaces. We lint roll the couch, ottoman, and vacuum everywhere. Linens are washed after every guest, and our mattress are protected with mattress covers. -This is our family vacation home, please expect there will be some of our items in the house. This is not a hotel. -Longer stays are welcomed, and will be offered a larger discount. If you want to rent our home for longer than a month, reach to me for a special price! -We offer military discount. -If you are an author looking for a bookish getaway, reach out to me!
