A Perfect Stay

I cannot recommend Mike's property highly enough. For two people who want to focus on time outdoors while having a place-that-feels-like-home, this is absolutely perfect. The thing that really shines through in this property is the focus on the details. We have all been in VRBOs or BNBs that feel thrown together with a disappointing/ inconvenient lack of necessities for a truly comfortable stay. The hosts and owners have gone above and beyond in considering and providing necessities (and luxuries) that are the cherry-on-top for travelers. From a well-equipped kitchen that allowed us to easily cook from home, to an outdoor box with firewood, kindling, chair cushions, and a rag to wipe them down if they're wet; everything is well thought out and clearly focuses on a comfortable and welcoming stay. While the space is compact, my partner and I were able to fully unpack each of our carry-ons and one oversized piece of luggage. This speaks to the thoughtful design of the space. Truly, every inch has a purpose. Finally, the thought the hosts put into giving this property privacy/separation was outstanding. We had our own driveway, parking, and a fence that made it feel like we had our own front yard.I have already told Mike that we will be back; my only hesitation in writing such a positive review is hoping that it won't be booked next time we want to come!
