"Everything you could think of was provided by Courtney in her beautiful listing. We especially loved the gas fireplace! Courtney made arrival and departure seamless and easy even after we had an unexpected delay in arriving. Looking out the front door past the covered porch, the trees made is seem very secluded and like we were staying in the woods! Just an amazing and comfortable stay!"
