2d Stay Here and Hope for More!

Gary does a great job making sure this house is CLEAN, and well-stocked! Not "in town", but not far, either - and so very, very quiet! Seeing the deer was fun, too. The grounds are also kept neat and nice, with lovely flowers and a forest for the back yard. Definitely hope to come back here again!

Girls weekend

I planned a girls weekend in and around Bedford. The house was 15-20 minutes away. Everything was just a described and better. It was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed coffee on the back deck in the morning and the fire pit at night. The owner was friendly and helpful, he provided easy instructions for entering the house and connecting to the WiFi. And he was quick to respond to any questions I had . We will be back. Thank you, Gary, for sharing “Grandma’s house” with us.

Cozy and welcoming

Great place-really cozy and super clean! All you need to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. There's even a replica antique wooden record player/stereo to enjoy some vintage tunes. Very close to a lot of attractions, yet the home is in a quiet, secluded area. Would love to stay again.

Perfect Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Grandma's House! It was a quiet, secluded setting and made for a perfect getaway. Gary was a wonderful host. He even stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed. Hope to come back again to enjoy the firepit.

Stay in this wonderful house was too short

My wife and I spent only one night in this house on the way from West Virginia to New Jersey. The house is located in a very quite and picturesque place where you can fully enjoy the nature. It has everything that is needed for a comfortable rest. Another very important thing is the friendly attitude of the host. He contacted several times prior to our arrival, was nearby when we came to the property to provide helpful explanations, and came to ask about our experience when we were leaving on the next day. We would be happy to stay at this place if there is a necessity to visit the area in the future.

The only problem is that our stay was too short.

The place is great and exactly as described. It is a quiet country home near a creek on a small rural road. We were staying there at the end of our camping trip so it was nice to have a real AC, shower, washer, etc. Its not a luxury accommodation, but it doesn't claim to be. Its a quiet country home that would be comfortable for a lot longer than the couple nights we spent there. The owner was great and very responsive to the couple questions we had.

Just what we needed....

Spending a getaway weekend at Grandma's House was amazing! It was calm and relaxed. Set apart from the business of the world. We we're able to have fires and listen to music without worrying about neighbors right next door. The owner met us at check in and made sure he answered any and all questions. Felt at home! We will definitely be making a return trip!
