The property is beautiful inside and out and includes all the basics you might need except food and a toothbrush. It's close to services but far enough away to feel secluded. If you download the Merlin Bird ID app, you can sit on the deck, watch the birds, and have the app identify them by their call. This house can sleep 6 adults and is definitely the best Vrbo around! ##### Chris H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda L.
