Beautiful Retreat with Room for the whole family
Posted Jun. 16, 2024 on HomeAwayMy family wanted a quiet place in the garden of the gods for our familys Girls Birthday Retreat(mother me and daughter all within a week).
This place is like home away from home plus some.
Has room for the whole family. Full kitchen and a game room! A hot tub for max relaxing. r
Rockers for good ole porch sitting sessions. A fire pit grill and a gorgeous yard with a view to boot. Everything worked save the jucuzzi in the master bath but that might have been a user error.
With the space view privacy closeness to the garden (just 10 min drive) and amenities our family will definitely be putting this on our favorite places to stay list

Amazing house in an awesome area
Posted Apr. 1, 2024 on HomeAwayOur family of 5 (2 adults, 2 kids under 12 and our dog) loved our stay at the Walnut Hill house. The house was exactly as described, clean and plenty of space. And the properttly was huge, tons of exploring for us and the kids loved the hot tub and fire pit. There were tons of hicking trails with waterfalls and rocks to climb on near by. Couldnt ask for a better trip.

Nice
Posted Mar. 22, 2024 on HomeAwayThis is a nice, clean place conpared to other dog-friendly rentals. The rooms are a good size and plenty of room for our dog to explore. My uncle loved the huge tv with all of his cable channels he watches.The area is quiet, which is a plus for us. I'm kicking myself for forgetting to bring our telescope, but we were able to see a few falling stars. Would use again.

Great getaway
Posted Oct. 9, 2023 on HomeAwayIt was our second time! We just love it. It's so great I can bring my dogs and Liz and Marty even organize cradles! What a service. So spacious, clean and far away from our busy life's. Bonfire, hiking, star gazing, nice company... what we all needed. Thanks again for letting us stay at your hidden treasure.

Slice of Paradise
Posted Aug. 14, 2023 on HomeAwayWe absolutely loved the property. It is such a gorgeous, quiet setting out in the country that it lets you forget about the rest of the world for a while. No traffic noise, no sirens, no light pollution, just birds and bugs and dark, starry nights.
The house was larger than expected and offered lots of little zones where people could sit and talk or play board games. The kitchen was large and well-stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes, etc. Loved having a washer and dryer for clothes and towels (towels provided). Perhaps the most important amenity, the air conditioning, worked great and kept us comfy during our HOT July visit.
The property owner is friendly, communicative, and ready to offer recommendations for local attractions. They live close by and told us to reach out if we needed anything at all during our stay.
I can see us going back.

Hiking in the rain

Great Stay
Posted Jul. 26, 2023 on HomeAwayThe property was large and beautiful. We loved the rocking chairs and firepit. Starter supplies were provided, including linens and towels. The kitchen had plenty of cookware, dishes, and space to make meals. We appreciated multiple beds, since our Girl Scouts like their own space.
Everything was clean and welcoming.
I'd highly recommend purchasing your groceries on your way into town, as the property is a decent drive to Walmart. If you're spending time at the house & cooking, bring your own extra paper towels, foil, bags, etc. We didn't think about those things prior.
Wonderful stay. We would return!
