We had a fantastic stay here this week! The location was so quiet and peaceful, but you’re only 10 minutes away from being in the middle of town if you need anything (and I recommend going to the Red Star Cafe at least once for delicious pastries and coffee!) The place was well set, with plenty of towels and washcloths in every bathroom, a fully stocked kitchen, and there’s even some great family games to enjoy around the big table. I thoroughly enjoyed sitting in the window seat with a fire crackling in the wood stove, just enjoying some downtime, and looking out to see a small herd of deer in the yard! And when we got a large amount of snow on our last night, they sent someone to plow the driveway without us even asking. We will 100% stay here the next time we head this way to visit family! Super responsive and helpful, great hosts, lovely home!!
