This place is absolutely gorgeous! When we turned into the driveway I was blown away by the view. Owners were very responsive and helpful. It's close to several wineries and restaurants, yet secluded enough for a private getaway. The upstairs loft bedroom had a Jacuzzi tub and walk in shower that was amazing! We will definitely be back.

We celebrated my husbands 80th birthday with the kids and grandkids. We spent time fishing and outdoor time and games at night. Kids and grands came from Springfield, IL, Colorado and California. Our 8 year described the house as a cabin and the downstairs as a hotel.
