I was really looking forward to my stay at Jim and Jeannette's but was unfortunately unable to make the trip due to a sudden illness. My experience in corresponding with Jeannette however, was really nothing short of exceptional and was far beyond what I would have ever expected. My initial inquiries about my stay at Jim and Jeannette's were thoroughly answered in a most timely manner. I had planned on traveling with a friend and as I was unable to make it; Jeannette made special arrangements to reimburse part of the cost on her own accord. It's really great to have such compassionate people reinforce my belief that people are inherently good. They both made sure my travel partner had a wonderful stay; I've posted his review below and am hoping to stay at Jim and Jeannette's in the near future!
A review from my friend Stuart:
I stayed recently with Jim & Jeannette and would 100% recommend them.
I was taken into the home and made feel more like a family member than a paying guest. Their warmth and care made my stay immeasurably better. It would have been a very lonesome trip otherwise as my travel partner couldn't make it at very short notice due to illness and I'm very grateful.
I had to be up at a crazy early time on my day of departure and Jeannette was very accommodating, leaving out breakfast items for me to help myself.
The house is gorgeous, and the lake is an absolute gem. I sat down there for an hour alone, quietly taking it all in.
Both lovely genuine people... beautiful location... gorgeous house. I'll be back same time next year to redo the same trail race (that was just up the road!).
