We have an on-site game room including board games, pinball machine, ski ball, and Pac-Man multi game machine. We have a NO animals allowed policy.

Beautiful Farmhouse

Wonderful home with a beautiful property. Very comfortable beds. We all wish we would have had an extra day to use the game room (skeeball is a favorite) and explore the creek/woods at the end of the property. It is at the top of the list when we go visit family in the area again!

Awesome Home! Book it!

We attended a funeral for my mother-in-law. It was a bitter sweet stay. Our 3 adult children and 3 grandchildren attended from California. We had the most FUN together, playing cards, pinball, games, eating out, and just visiting. The home was so comfortable with lots of space for each of us. The game room was a real hit for all! Would rent again. The owners have paid much attention to detail in making you feel welcome.

Very nice updated house in West Union

Great location with short walks along tree lined homes to downtown West Union where there’s Euphoria Coffee with hot breakfast option and several other eating establishments.

Main floor has 3 bedrooms and and onsuite bath plus a half bath in the washroom. Coffee was supplied with bath the ground coffee and Kuereg option. 75 inch Samsung innden and another nice TV downstairs near the arcade room. Highly recommend this property et al.

We were in town visiting family near by and this home was perfect for us! It was so clean and spacious. Everything was labeled and easy to find. They have so many little touches you don’t often find in a VRBO that made our stay even more comfortable. The kids loved the game room and all of the games and puzzles they have. The back yard is beautiful! The first night we were hearing traffic and the owner even had a fan delivered to help with that and to keep us cool on a warmer night. Very responsive owners.
