Amazing views and stay
Thank you so much for your amazing space for our honeymoon. The touch of leaving us a gift of champagne was so thoughtful. We loved the space, it was local to restaurants and sites we wanted to see but also quiet and allow us to just relax for a few days. It was amazing would definitely come again. Communication with the owner was also Quick and clear. Wonderful experience!

Great time!
Only suggestion would be to stock cooking oil (vegetable or olive oil) instead of just Pam. There was balsamic but no oil to dress a salad. Otherwise great place! Also the freezer melted our ice cream bc it is not cold enough.

My boyfriend and I visited for the weekend to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful time! We loved sitting on the lawn and watching the sunsets. The host was great. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. Absolutely no complaints! We would definitely come again! As a side note we loved your cat, Audrey! What a treat to interact with her :-)

A perfect place to stay that feels private
Amazing views from anywhere on the property. Staying here felt so much more peaceful then it would have if we stayed in a hotel. My partner and I made s’mores over the fire pit and that paired with the jacuzzi made for a wonderful weekend celebrating our anniversary. Will definitely be staying again.
