Good to know

The entire property is available for your use, except for an old pool and pool house. There is fence around this area with a locked gate and guests will not be able to access this area until we complete renovation. We can't wait until we've saved up enough to fill in the pool. We've already renovated the pool house and it's a lot of fun.

Other Details to Note

1. There is NO TV in the house. This property is designed to be a peaceful refuge where individuals, friends, and families can disconnect from busy lives and reconnect with loved ones or enjoy quiet solitude while catching up on the forgotten joys in life. 2. There is a train that runs just behind our property. Often it comes once a week. Sometimes it comes once a day. We love our erratic train very much. If you wave to the conductors they usually wave back which is pretty cool. 3. In the summertime, the upper level of the house is slightly warmer than the lower. In addition to the AC, there are electric fans in the closets and an old school attic fan in the upstairs hallway which help a lot. 4. For larger groups, if everyone takes a shower back-to-back in the morning, it is possible for the hot water to be temporarily exhausted. We have a Rinnai tankless hot water heater that heats water almost instantaneously, but give it 20-30 minutes and another large group should be able to shower. 5. The oven is on the smaller side. It probably won’t fit a 23 pound turkey, but may fit a 15 pound turkey. That's helpful to know if you cook a lot of turkeys.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this rental property! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. We were delighted to find cold, refreshing water and a personal handwritten note welcoming us to the property. The accommodations were incredibly comfortable and the personal touches made all the difference. The guest book was a fantastic resource, helping us discover the best local spots and hidden gems in the area. We especially loved the fire pit and the thoughtfully provided chopped wood, which allowed us to create warm and memorable evenings by the fire. The house itself was spotless and well-maintained, with a fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms that had everything we needed. The attention to detail and the welcoming atmosphere truly made our stay special.

The property is in a beautiful setting. We were in town for a wedding so our evenings were full. We didn't get a chance to use the firepit which was disappointing as it is a wonderful family space. The house was well appointed and included so many special touches like a welcome note to our family. We would definitely return!
