About this property

Why book a room when you can have the whole house!?

Please read thoroughly: We are happy to share our family get-away with you! We acquired this property to use personally and offer it to guests when not in-use by our own family and friends.

As a family, we all chip in to do our own cleaning and maintenance. We are not master landscapers or green-thumbs but we try our best. You will be in a rural setting and all that goes with it such as gravel road dust & mosquitoes to name a few. Gravel road dust, ! You will not find hotel corners on the beds and perfect creases in the towels, but you will find a tidy place where we like to spend family time.

This home has made great memories for a lot of guests! No frills!! This is an older constructed home. We cannot offer glitter, sparkle, shine or the latest and greatest technology. We do offer you a spot to lay your head, relax and bond with family and friends. Which is exactly how we use it. We provide basic amenities (bedding , towels & kitchen items) that we don't want to travel with so we share with our guests. We hope you can make memories of your own.

Like Grandma and Grandpas House
I know that it was not going to be anything fancy but it was just so old. It felt unclean and old smell. The pillows were literally falling apart. I would think just maybe getting new pillows and a bath mat would be nice. For future to save money pull out that old carpet and put some type of floor in. Also, at least remove the bent up gutter from outside. by house. It was a place to lay your head but bring your own pillow. Nice people and communication though.
