Loved our stay
We were looking to get out of town for spring break and wanted to have some hiking close by. The house was easy access to Giant City and other parks. The house was clean and well taken care of. Well stocked kitchen, plenty of towels etc. The decorator did a fabulous job and it was a cozy place to stay for the week. Hot tub was a very nice bonus.. Would definitely stay here again.

Spring break
We took our adult kids on a family spring break vacay. The house is great, although the weather didnt cooperate with all our hiking and outdoor plans, we had a great stay close to other indoor activities such as axe throwing and bowling. The one day we had to make up for lost time lead us to 2 nearby hiking trails w/waterfalls. The 3rd was a bit farther of a drive, but when we got back our achy legs rested quickly in the hot tub followed by a warm fire.

Beautiful house. Lots of lady bugs
I get the weather and the warmth, but there we 100s of lady bugs coming in every available spot in doors and windows. They made the main level and the upstairs unhabitable. The house itself was beautiful, cozy and welcoming. The propert was well maintained and the hot tub and fire pit were great additions. The location was great for local attractions and ease of travel. We would definitely stay here again, just not woth warm fall temps.

A wonderful place to stay! So much room with lots of space. We were a group of ladies going to wineries for the day. Loved the hot tub and deck with the fire table when we got back. The inside was clean and spacious. Will definitely come back!

Nice property, overall. Would consider again.
This is a nice house with a communicative owner/manager. The space was good for 2 familes (8 people) including children and an infant. The interior space is very nice and lots of room to hang out on multiple floors. e had a probelm with the washer whiel there and the response was veyr fast. Things were very well communicated to us in advacne of our arrival.
There were a few relatively minor things and some of them outside of the ownser control that I will mention, while also noting that I am still giving it 5 stars.
First, not all of people in the area are friendly. I grew up in a community 30 monites away from here, and myoverall impression is that the region in general has become less welcoming of percieved outsiders. My brother was harrassed and threatened by a loal while riding his bike on a public road. This guy in a large truck yelled at him. Swerved at him multiple times and followed him for serveal miles at an unsafe distance while flahsing his lights and honking. He also hinted that he has a firearm. My wife and sister-in-law also walked the country roads a few mornings for exercize, and one of the neighbors engaged them at one point and mentioned that she considered them to be brave to wlak the roads because people that lived there would recognize them as outsiders. So that is not a comment about the house, but our experience in the area around the house. It does not seem that all the neighbors are excited about having a VRBO and tourists in the area.

We rented this home for a couples getaway. We toured wineries, shopping, restaurants and hiked. The property was clean, beautifully decorated and quiet. Truly happy with our stay and owners were very easy to communicate with! We will definitely be back! Highly recommend! A++

Cozy & Cute!
My bookclub (group of moms) stayed at this property for a weekend girls trip and it was perfect! It was spacious, yet cozy. Plenty of hang out space inside and out! We really enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub! It is a short drive to many different places and activities- we stopped by a few of the wineries on Saturday, yet just far enough away from neighbors and such. The property was clean and as listed. Our whole group would highly recommend and stay here again!
