It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.

    Your guest portal includes advertisements with third-party upgrades that you may want to enhance your stay.

Great place to stay with your whole family

We did a quick get away for my husband’s birthday and were able to bring our dog along with us as well which is always nice. The backyard was fenced in and had a fire pit so we could all hang out and relax. We would stay here again hands down. Loves that Lauren was so way to communicate with and also responded quickly.

The House Description Did NOT Lie, It Was Truly Zen

Our stay at the Zen Country Retreat was perfect! The house was super clean, had every amenity you'd need for your stay (including great support for kids), and was super comfortable. As someone who lives in a city, I was truly shocked by how quiet and peaceful it was out there. No traffic noise, no rowdy neighbors, it was all very peaceful. We also LOVED the s'mores ingredients; my kids had a blast making them, and it was a very nice, homey touch!

House is very nice and clean. It is tucked back off the road and you feel like you are in secluded country home. We loved the back Casita that was set up as an entertainment room. The owner is super responsive and provides great information about things to do in the area. Will definitely book again in the future.
