Discover a serene retreat where guests consistently appreciate the cozy atmosphere, well-appointed amenities, and attentive service from the host, Madeline. This charming property offers the perfect setting for relaxation and rejuvenation, ensuring an unforgettable getaway experience.

The house is so nicely decorated and relaxing. If you’re apprehensive about it being on a main road - don’t be. They’ve made the space feel very private and it’s a super quiet town. Has all of the amenities you need and Stewart’s is within walking distance for anything you forgot to bring

It was a beautiful property with excellent amenities and a cozy space for up to three couples to get away and relax. The hot tub and sauna were terrific--and private despite the house being near other homes. The owners responded extremely quickly; they addressed concerns as promptly as possible. 

Our first 24 hours in the house were challenging as the house lacked heat and dropped to 40 degrees. The owners quickly provided space heaters and scheduled maintenance on the furnace as soon as possible--a challenge given it was Christmas Eve. But despite this, the stay at the house was fantastic and just the restful week over the holidays we were looking for.

My wife and I stayed here for a few days as a getaway for our 10th Anniversary and we couldn't have been happier with the location. The home was super clean and spacious and was exactly as advertised in the photos. It was super relaxing between the hot tub, sauna, and massage therapy devices they had for you in the home. Totally a mini-spa retreat! Madeline was a great host and answered promptly and was more than willing to help with any issues that may have arose or give recommendations of places to eat or things to do in the area. The beds were super comfortable and everything about the home had just the perfect spa-in-the-mountain vibe that we thoroughly enjoyed. If you're a reader like us, the reading room was perfect for enjoying a good book and cup of coffee or tea with great natural lighting. Take care of this hidden gem of a stay location if you go.   

We can't wait to come back again for another stay. Thank you for having us!! 5/5 Highly Recommend!!!

Madeline was responsive to all my questions and dropped off pies for Thanksgiving. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay!

BEAUTIFUL spot! Had an incredible time. The place is so very clean and beautifully decorated. Enjoyed the amenities! Very peaceful and serene. Madeline was an incredible host. Super responsive and helpful! Would definitely stay here again!
