Beautiful property, exactly as described. Skylights and windows allowed excellent views both day and night, plus not needing interior lighting during the day and looking at the stars at night was exceptional. Loved sitting on the back deck listening to the creek flow and watching the squirrels and birds dancing through the trees. Bonus - garage use, was fantastic. Ease of unloading and loading vehicle, protection from weather (it rained 2 days during our visit), and the added protection from any unseen wildlife at night was greatly appreciated.

Great creek sounds!

This property was almost a five. If the windows had been clean, and the had the grill been available, I would’ve given it one more star.

Kitchen was not great. Cutting board had food on it, cupboards very disorganized and hard to find stuff. hard to know what's there as it's all scattered. lids in one drawer, pans across the way in another. looked like there might be a nutribullet but only the jar there?Teflon coated pans had scrapes and scratches - get rid of them!, same for utensils! Dishwasher works fine but sounds like its breaking every time you close door. Very basic items - salt and pepper, Italian seasonings, spices, sugar -nothing has a date as to when left at house. No baking pans, one large bowl to mix with - nothing else for bowls. Sharp knives and flatware not really cleaned well. Kitchen has potential, but was subpar. faucet doesn't work well. Is not fixed on counter so swirls every time its used. Faucet doesn't flex well between streaming and shower feature. Faucet leaks if not turned off exactly right. Not enough kitchen towels.King bed needs new mattress. Kept rolling to middle. Duvet had stains on it. Gross! Queen bed not much better.Living room sofa - is it real leather? Kept sliding off. Went to look at pullout and saw candy wrapper under cushion so knew it hadn't been cleaned so didn't use. Again. gross!I would not pay what you ask for this place having stayed there. it's not worth the asking price.

Great location!

This adorable house is located in a wonderful secluded location. The beds were extremely comfortable!! Parts of the home have been modernized, but others have not. The locks on the doors are tricky, and although there are instructions on how to use them, they’re not very easy. Mostly everything you need will be provided, but you should know there are no food storage containers, chip clips, or an ice cream scoop. Just sharing here so you know you need to bring these with you if you plan on packing a picnic lunch like we did.

We loved this home in the mountains. The house had lots of extras to making staying comfortable, cooking and laundry super accessible.
