Wonderful Vacation Home
Submitted: November 8, 2010

My family and I just recently returned from our 3 night stay at this house, and it exceeded our expectations. The house is at the end of a long country drive, tucked away out of view. A friend we have living just down the road for years didn't even know it was there! The house had beautiful rustic charm, yet all the creature comforts you'd expect.
It was clean, neat, and comfortable. The ample dining room is great for large families, and the living room was very comfortable. Old wide plank flooring is found throughout, and I really liked that all 4 bedrooms are in close proximity to one another, so the kids were always nearby. The house was plenty warm, and there were more than enough dishes, linens, housewares, etc, even for my large family. It would have been nice to have a washer/dryer, but all the old house character was more than a worthy trade-off. The owners were terrific to deal with and very accomadating. I received quick responses to all my emails. A very nice touch was the reading material and area information that the owners had at the house.
The land around the house was just breathtaking. If you have young children, it's a dream. There's a great playground set, as well as a huge open field that must be several acres. There's also an oversized basketball court to play on, and a very quaint area off to the side with a fire pit and rustic seating. We have T-mobile for our cell service and were not able to get any reception at all. Fortunately, the house has a wi-fi connection, so we were able to email our friends in the area to make plans.
I highly recommend this home for a getaway, and hope to be back soon myself! You won't be disappointed!
