We really enjoyed our stay at this whimsical & comfy house in the woods! Very fun layout with all the amenities we needed to have a comfortable stay. I would love to come back in the winter to enjoy the fireplace.
Only issue was lack of AC on 90 degree days. I should have realized that ahead of booking. Great spot for spring/fall, just not ideal in such high temps.
