Outside, the views are endless, summer barbecues are inevitable, and fireside stories and s'mores are encouraged!

Dec 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Livingston review Overall, the stay was very satisfactory!Since the weather was not ideal, unexpectedly cool, we were not exactly prepared. I don’t like to mess with someone else’s heat or a/c and had difficulty with the lower floor!Also I failed to inquire about the location of the bedrooms…all were upstairs and my wife is unable to climb stairs. Thus, we had to sleep on the couch! Fortunately that was not unbearable…MY BAD! ##### Jerry S. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Erin G.
