Immaculate House

Our group is on year 8 of our annual golf trip. This house was without a doubt the best place that has hosted us. The pictures of this house don’t do it justice. The space, the rooms, the kitchen, the living areas, and all the amenities were beyond anything we could have asked for. On top of that, Eric makes sure everything is taken care of from check-in to check-out. Do yourself a favor and book this beautiful place… We know we will be back for sure!

If you choose to stay at this cabin, you will not need to bring anything with you except your clothes and shoes. The cabin owners have thought of EVERYTHING you might need including towels to wipe the dogs' feet! Everything was perfect and we would definitely rent this cabin again when we come back to PA.

Extended family get-together

The property is beautifully built and maintained. The kitchen is lavishly furnished, with everything you could want for cooking for a large crowd. We had 11 adults and 11 children staying for various parts of a week, and the owner made it work out seamlessly by providing extra beds as necessary. It rained nonstop for three days, but we still had a great time because there were so many things to do in the house (pool, ping pong, Foosball, board games, etc.).

Amazing

10 of us traveled from Atlanta to celebrate my moms 90th birthday with the rest of my family. This home was beyond AMAZING! The attention to detail that the owners provided was more than any rental we have stayed in. The basement had enough entertainment for everyone, I spent some time playing my favorite Highschool game, Galaga; my kids were impressed. This home had everything we needed and more. Kitchen was fully stocked, bathrooms had everything needed. The master toilet, WOW! We will have one in our master very soon. The most comfortable beds, the laundry room stocked with 2 sets of washer and dryers and all the supplies needed. When I say “attention to detail” this review does not come close to explaining all the amazing things the owners thought of. Thank you very much for sharing your home.

Fantastic house for an extended family gathering

It was clean and remarkably well maintained — it seemed like it was brand new. Despite being a rental property, the kitchen was spotless, and there were not even the minor scratches and dings that we expect to see in a rental home The owners clearly put a lot of thought into what would be convenient for us, with small, helpful amenities throughout the house. There were great entertainment options including the game room, and the expansive front and back yard, which were great for the kids to play in. There was plenty of room inside, so everyone could have their own space, but it was also very easy to gather in the common areas. We had a great day and I would certainly recommend this beautiful house in a nice setting.

Your Lodge is incredible in just about every way! It is well designed for entertaining large parties and is well equipped with all the necessities. The views are great, especially at sunset. Besides food, the lodge had everything we needed in abundance, and kids and adults both had a great time. Absolutely the cleanest vacation house that we've ever rented.
