Summary: Very comfortable beds! Overall, the inside of the house was clean, warm and welcoming. All of the little things are thought of, lacked for nothing. The outside area could use some clean up, but we plan to stay here at all our future, frequent trips to Gholson!

Summary: We were wanting a chance to relax after the holidays and boy this place fit the need perfectly. It is away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but close enough to anything you need. Nice and quiet with plenty of trees. We enjoyed seeing the cows and horses! Over all it was a perfect place to relax and fresh eggs were great for 1 of our breakfasts.

Summary: The house is larger than it seemed in the online pics. It is very clean & has guest amenities - books, magazines, bottle of wine, sweet snacks, fully loaded kitchen with a waffle maker. The screen in porch is nice in the evening. Nearest surprise is a basket of eggs from their own chickens. Highly recommend. D
