I don’t have enough positive things to say about Sarah’s place. I was apprehensive because there weren’t any reviews when I booked. Don’t let that deter you. The house looks exactly as photographed. We didn’t have to leave the house, everything was supplied. Sarah had the things I had forgotten, supplies for s’mores, every pot, pan, serving ware, dishes. Everything. The location was great. Sarah was responsive. I would absolutely book again.

Our group of 8 had an amazing time at this place - we totally lucked out! The host was an absolute gem - welcoming, accommodating, and super responsive. She gave us great info and local tips that didn't disappoint. She was so reliable our entire stay, and really cares about her guests and their experience! The house is gorgeous with plenty to do! We loved the hot tub, sauna, movie theater and karaoke. Everything was spotless and brand new. The kitchen was a dream for cooking group meals, and we had the best time just hanging out. The peaceful location surrounded by nature was the perfect touch - we even saw deer from our window! Our whole group is already talking about when we can come back when it's warmer. Looking forward to our next stay here! Thanks for making our getaway unforgettable!
