I usually don't write reviews but when you book a place like this and then see if with your own eyes, there's no way you can't write a review about it.

Karen has done an absolutely amazing job with this place. It's a one of kind gem that has so many romantic features and quite honestly you'll never want to leave. The house itself has lots of personality with each room having a rustic style.

Every night we felt like we were in paradise and sometimes forgetting exactly where we were - out of the country even! There's several fireplaces, lots of pockets where you can find solitude and have you're own time with a cup of hot coffee. And every corner of this house, you'll always find a great view - that's truly how amazing this place is.

At the top of the house, you'll find that architect designed the second bedroom to peer over the entire house with scenic mountain view. For those of you traveling with another couple, you'll find privacy at the Emerald Retreat!

At the end of our stay, we popped into the new hot tub outside and had glasses of wine to celebrate our last night. With lights wrapping around every tree and glistening at us over the night, we couldn't believe how magical our final stay was.

This is a must-go vacation home! Karen was a wonderful host and was always quick to respond. She gave us recommendations as well as answering any questions we had in using any of the equipment at the house. She was spectacular!

You won't regret booking this stay.
