Charlie is an outstanding host and showed us the best in the are in his guided tours. I highly recommend this property. I will return if the chance arises. ##### Anne S. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josh C. Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nothing Better than Jacobite's Retreat! I cannot say enough good things about this property and the owners. They are so responsive. They allowed us to checkin early. They communicated with us on two separate occasions. We messed up the hot water unit, and were so patient and helpful getting it restored. We were a lot to deal with and they helped us around every corner. The location could not be better. ##### Josh C.
