After seeing the pictures and location, my interest was piqued. But when I saw the insanely horrific review that Steve had responded to, I had to see for myself what this was like. When I arrived, I was greeted loudly by his two very friendly dogs. Knowing dogs, I recognized immediately that they were simply excited and was able to calm them down in just a few seconds. Guests with a fear of dogs should not stay here. Everyone else will love them, they are very friendly and love attention.
As for the hosts, Steve and his daughters are very professional, laid back and helpful. When I arrived, my bag was locked in a friend's house, and Steve very generously loaned me the specific cell phone charger I needed as well as a toothbrush and toothpaste. In addition, he offered to make me an old-fashioned and offered tips on restaurants to eat at the next morning.
The bed was very comfortable, pillows luxurious down filled.
In short, this place is the real deal and is well worth the stay. Be aware that the bedroom is just barely big enough for the bed, and taller guests may find the bed too small. It was perfect for me at 5'7".
I will return for sure. If you're worried about the psycho review, rest assured that you can ignore it. Those people were sociopaths. Steve is a great host.
