Our stay was great and our host was kind and responsive. We were expecting true seclusion and “private” but this description perhaps may be a relative term. To us, private/secluded means not near other houses. Sure, you couldn’t hear anyone because of the calming sound of the creek which was great. But you could see other houses through the trees and there were houses pretty close next door. Again, still a great house and property, beautiful view and probably even better in the summer, but we were looking for something a bit more secluded and private. Also, the water heater may need a tune up.
