May 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peace and quiet Fantastic spot for the 2 of us and our dog. Yard is suitable for a medium dog to enjoy free and big enough for a large dog or 2\. Some spots under the fence that a small dog might escape thrpugh. Easily enough space for 3 couples or a larger family to enjoy and not be in eachothers space. ##### John W. Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert O.
