"We loved thisour place and had a great time! Evening sunsets from hottub and fireplace to die for. House is very comfortable especially the liv room reclining couches. WE LOVED THAT!!!! I'd highly recommend this place and we may rent again in the future! I forgot how many fun activities are in that area. hiking, biking, swimmin, kayaking. We were surprised how there were hardly any mosquitoes--I sat out by the firepit for hours without a bite. and with all our outdoor activities never found any ticks either and saw plenty of deer!"

"The property is beautiful. The house as well. If it wasn't for the fact we left the dogs at home with a sitter, I would never want to leaveThere's a calming energy here. Peaceful. The deer were my favorite thing by far of the trip. They nestle at night on the other side of the driveway. It's amazing how well they coexist with their human neighbors. Totally unfazed. Every morning we had coffee with mama and baby. My husband was sick the entire time so we didn't get to adventure, but the property is so relaxing it didn't even matter. Patrick was great. Very patient with me texting him. Very polite. The whole experience was a delight and he would love to come stay again. My only two complaints were my husband being sick and we didn't get to experience any bears lol.nothing at all to do with the property and host Thank you Patrick for allowing us to use your beautiful home. 10/10 ,"
