Birthday Weekend
My family really enjoyed their weekend stay. We loved the upstairs deck for sunsets and had fun playing lawn games and hanging outside. The living room is so cozy and has tons of seating. The decor is truly unique. We could tell the house is well loved and holds many fun memories. We would love to stay again.

Eclipse trip
We came for the total solar eclipse of 2024 - too many clouds to actually see it but the trip was still wonderful. Terry is the nicest, most accommodating host. The house is amazing and we spent most of our time there. The only lacking star was the entrance at the driveway was a little rough for the super-low sports car that we rented - otherwise a perfect rental.

Celebration of Life
This weekend we celebrated the life of my beautiful sis-n-law that was taken way too soon, my nieces 21st birthday, moms 68th and Mother’s Day. The house was perfect for everything we wanted to do from singing karaoke and barbecuing to having a seafood boil and watching the sunset. The weather cleared up enough just in time for us to float the River, enjoy the hot tub, relax on the hammock and play a few outside games. Highly recommend!!
