Summary: The property and location were convenient. Very relaxing on the deck listening to the running creek. It would be ideal to have screens on windows to allow guests to listen to the calming sound of the water. The biggest issue was the rancid septic/sewer smell in the downstairs bedroom that made it unbearable to use. Th

Summary: Such a wonderful getaway. Quiet except for the running stream. Open floorplan with wide-open windows that let the beauty of the trees refresh you, mind and soul. Great communication from the hosts made it easy to find, check-in, and check-out.

Summary: What a beautiful location! This was exactly what we needed; no distractions allowed us to stay up late and share time talking, listening to the rain while we worked a puzzle! We visited Muse vineyards, Blue Mountain Brewery, Old Trade Brewery and Cidery and WAR craft brewing. All dog friendly! I wish there had been a washer/dryer at the house to help with the wet clothes but other than that our stay was wonderful!
