Home improvements which are pending new photography: All wood flooring (no carpet), new fire pit chairs, new patio table, artwork throughout the home. Pictures are pending. We had a lapse in rental for the 2022 year as we made some improvements and enjoyed the home for our own use, this is why we do not have reviews during this time.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions and certainly please feel free to submit your booking request. Due to internet scams and email phishing, I only accept payments through VRBO. We hope to make our home your favorite place to stay and return every year.
