Mar 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing property We absolutely loved our time at the A Frame! The house is so well done, and all the little touches are so nice. The owners thought of everything you could need while away from home, so many little amenities. The property is nice, peaceful and well kept. We explored Bellaire, some local wineries and went to TC for the day. Can’t wait to be back next year for another serene winter weekend! ##### rebecca K.
