Incredible gem in the woods!
This was my second time staying at this extraordinary property. The spacious home and grounds are impeccable and well-appointed (we particularly appreciated the well-stocked kitchen and huge backyard), and it’s minutes away from great hiking trails (we found the wolf’s den!) and a distillery that was an experience in itself. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Expansive and Quiet
We greatly enjoyed our weekend stay- house was clean, quiet and had nice extra touches (e.g. wine and snacks). Property is located along a very quiet road with a huge yard.
