We had a wonderful & relaxing weekend at ZEN. There were so many things that made it exceptional, hot tub during a snowfall, soaking tub etc. One of the most underrated things though was the towel warmer! What a fantastic thing to have when you come back in from the hot tub during a snow storm!We look forward to trying to make this an annual trip.

My stay was wonderful! It was reasonably priced for everything there. I reached out to the host asking if it was possible to check-in any earlier and she had some flexibility to do and was quick to respond. The home was clean and organized with a relaxing atmosphere. I will 100% be going back!!:)Thank you for making the stay special and worth it!

We really enjoyed our little mini getaway. The host was very easy to deal with. The hot tub and the infrared sauna were fabulous. I’ve never actually used a soaking tub before and it was wonderful. I especially like the donkey outback.

A hidden Gem
The neighborhood wasn't that great but don't judge a book by its cover- The inside was lovely with lots of special touches Having no oven or bbq was different lucky we checked ahead & were able to bring a portible grill with us we like to cook-only found 1 restaurant close to us.Kitchen & bathroom nicely stocked. It was a bit of a drive to get places but who wanted to leave this little piece of heaven, we would defiantly go back No option for 4.5 stars sadly id def give it that

Great anniversary stay!
Spent our 16th anniversary at Zen this past week. Really lovely time. The house is exactly like it appears. The hot tub is wonderful! The bathroom is great. All the amenities and thoughtful touches meant so much! It had just about everything you needed. The ONLY complaint and thing that was missing -- was real sugar for coffee. I don't do artificial sweeteners, and that was all that was stocked. Such an insignificant "complaint" though, and easily fixed with a run to the store. Loved our time together there!

Cozy cottage
Looking for a cozy cottage where you can enjoy the comforts of home in a different home? That's Zen. Myself and 2 girlfriends spent an evening here and loved all the amenities. We enjoyed the hot tub the most, but having the ease of Roku TV and comfortable sleeping were bonus' we did not take for granted. The Minisplit controls were a little difficult to use (we couldn't figure out the remotes even with instructions) but there was an electric fireplace that fixed the problem! We recommend staying longer than 1 night to be able to enjoy everything Zen has to offer.

Sweet little getaway
Beautifully decorated and thoughtfully designed with everything we might want in each room. We spent one night and although it was raining we had a great time. We spent some time in the hot tub, relaxed on the couch and even soaked in the tub. We plan on returning!

Serene unassuming abode
I've been renting on VRBO for many years. Gesine's place is one of the nicest VRBO rentals I've ever been too. This home is so thoughtfully designed & decorated. The thoughtful little touches, like Dr. Teal's products for the bathtub, to little snacks, and tea selection - Gesine didn't miss a thing. It was peaceful and quiet - just what I was after! Thank you Gesine for allowing me this amazing stay.
