Summary: This is a very interesting property, beautiful inside and out, and fun to stay in. It was very comfortable for our family of 5. Very clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and communication with the management/owner was excellent. We did not have any requests or questions, as everything was well set up for a relaxing stay. The views were amazing from every room.

Summary: This is a charming homestead with beautiful views. Check-in was good. When we arrived we immediately saw the mouse traps throughout the home with 4 dead mice trapped. Not quite the welcome you want when going to a vacation home. We then noticed all the mouse poop across the kitchen table and floors. This place has a serious mouse problem and I would suggest looking into Live Trap boxes that you place around the home. It traps multiple mice, they die from panic, and you empty them weekly. We contacted the Rental company and they asked if we could dispose of them in the garbage outside. So my husband did and the garbage outside was full. It was obvious nobody had stayed here for a while and nobody had checked/cleaned before our arrival. I then went on the hunt to find a vacuum to clean up the mouse poop. At this point for $400+ a night, this was not looking good. The beds and bathrooms were clean. We were able to keep the home cool with the box fans provided. We had a mishap with the BBQ grill where the propane hose burned up from a leak and could not use it. We hiked down to the frying pan river. It was unclear in the description how far the hike was. It is downhill and across the main road then it turns into grass as tall as my hips with no clear path where to go. From my understanding, we could fish on down the road, but it was unclear where. My husband & son did Fish the Private Pond the last night and that was the best part of the whole vacation.

Summary: The location was beautiful and the house had ample room to spread out enabling everyone to relax (in peace if they wished) while affording several places to come together and play games, chat, etc. Lots of windows and light made it a joy for the few days we were there. We’ll definitely get mom and the girls out there before too long to experience the home, the ranch and the Fryingpan River and valley. Lynn was awesome. She stopped over one evening to see how we were doing and answered some questions we had about the history of the ranch, and the railroad that used to exit in the valley. Lynn, the boys thought the place was awesome- we all did!
