Good little spot for a private getaway
We enjoyed our stay, although the pest control people came and knocked on the door in the morning and there were cockroachs in the coffee maker, as well as mice in the outside storage box. Otherwise, perfect for a private getaway!

Very clean and everything you would need. Close to towns and small family cafes to eat. Yet off the road enough it was very private and felt like camping but in a tiny house. Loved it.

Beautiful getaway
I loved being surrounded by timber! The water fountain gave off some beautiful sounds and it was so peaceful. My mom, her best friend and I stayed for the weekend and had a blast. It was super clean!! It was the cleanest Air B&B I’ve ever been too. The owners were also very nice and laid back. I would definitely go again!

Wonderful Hosts!!
Due to unforeseen circumstances, I was unable to stay as expected. BUT. The communication with the hosts was fantastic! They were quick to respond. Extremely understanding of my circumstances. And great to work with. I would certainly recommend staying at one of their properties. And hope to do so in my future travels.

Peaceful setting
The property was nicely wooded, and very quiet. It was to wet for a campfire, but there is a spot for one. The cabin was cozy, with a good heater in the main room. Note* Google maps puts location on wrong side of the road. We missed it the first time by. We enjoyed our stay at the property, and we will book again. Location is less than 20 minutes from Mt. Vernon, where we have relatives.
