Best Decision

Staying at the Big Foot ranch was on of the best decisions we’ve ever made. The house and property are beautiful. The bedrooms are spacious, the dining table can seat ten, the enclosed porch is large and has a dining/game table space and lounge area. We hosted guests and had room on the porch to set up two additional six foot tables. The kitchen is well stocked and has a large fridge and freezer. The pool area was wonderful and immensely enjoyed with how hot it was during our stay. The property manager was easy to get a hold of and very kind and helpful when we had a question. The property is very convenient to many locations and activities with easy access to highway 43. Our guests were so impressed with the house they are considering renting it in the future for their families.

Beautiful property in great location!

A small group of us booked this location due to its proximity to Alpine Valley and the pool. It exceeded all of our expectations and we will definitely be back! The hosts were wonderful to work with, especially during the tornado events that hit the area. The farmhouse was amazing and the kitchen was perfect. The huge fridge and freezer allowed us to stay at the property and cook most of our meals. We highly recommend this property for anyone going to Alpine Valley or just looking for a nice, relaxing vacation!
