Really enjoyed our stay here for the weekend. Didn't hear from John at all before or during our stay but didn't mind the privacy at all. I would recommend eating out as the stove didn't get hot enough to fry anything even after 30 minutes, the oven worked well though. Aside from that the house was mostly clean and in a very beautiful spot. The toilet also took a long time to refill once it was flushed but it wasn't a huge issue and it looked like it was in the process of being fixed. All in all I would recommend staying here!
