What a perfect place to unwind and recover from a hectic life. The house feels like home. The extra touches Tami sprinkled throughout the house made us feel more than welcome, they made us feel known. From her thoughtful welcome, to our last day there, she was perfect. Available if needed, otherwise your privacy is guaranteed. If you like rugged countryside, this is it. Peaceful, quiet beauty, with wildlife (we saw deer, racoons, wild turkey, and we think a ringtail cat) and cows. Friendly humminbirds come and inspect you as you sip morning coffee on their wrap around porch. The house and beds are comfortable with a large master shower to refresh you at the end of the day.We highly recommend, and hope to return again and again. The only thing we regret is that we couldn't stay longer.
