Summary: It was all great, the host was very informative/helpful, the house was prepared ready wonderfully, the views (even though it was storming) were great. It was peaceful and relaxing. If i had any complaint at all, it would only be the chef knife needs sharpened. Otherwise everything was spectacular, and easy.

Summary: This house was centrally located for us to visit a plethora of natural sites in the western/central portion of the Shawnee National Forest. It was wonderful coming home from long days of hiking to a fully stocked kitchen to make or heat our dinners, and to relax comfortably for the evening. The countryside setting was perfect for us to feel right at home.

Summary: It was functional. The only thing was the clarification about the listing would be to let other people know that the second bathroom is down stairs and not on the main level with the bedrooms.

Summary: We had a great stay! The house was very clean, comfy, and well-equipped. The only downside was being so far removed from everything, but then again, we also enjoyed the peace and solitude and found our way around pretty easily.
