This house was perfect for our family, and our children loved the outdoor games and creek. The roads in and out are very rough, but our van did just fine.

Great place
We enjoyed our trip to Mansfield for Wilder Days. The house was wonderful and we had plenty of privacy! We will be back to stay longer next time! Thank you!
What a great place! Kitchen was well stocked, pots and pans were excellent. Fire pit was awesome! Swing was my favorite. A must place to stay if you are in the area.
Our family loved staying in this comfortable home, and the children especially enjoyed the creek and large yard to play in. The roads in to the home are very rough, but our van did fine getting in and out.
What a place to getaway and check out from the world. Highly recommended. Im definitely coming back. Thank you Just note if it rains....make sure you have a 4x4. This is an off grid place. But worth it.
The home is wonderful. Some in our group were surprised to find there is NO wifi and almost no cellular service. Days prior to our arrival there was heavy rainfall. The roads in the are were washed out to a point where 4 wheel drive was required to cross several creeks. This is a very nice remote property. I'd definitely go back.
The property was in a beautiful setting. We would have loved to have the cats come inside, however.....:)
I was a bit concerned with the lack of cell signal in case of an emergency.
