Beautiful home and gracious and kind guests! Wish we could have stayed longer. The decor and ambiance of our room was warm and relaxing. The natural beauty surrounding the home is so peaceful. Outstanding breakfast. We enjoyed talking with Debbie and Alan and appreciated their recommendation for a dinner spot in a nearby town; it was great! Communication was always quick and answered all questions. Thank you Debbie and Alan, for sharing your treasure of a home!

This was an absolutely beautiful home. The owners were very accommodating and very very nice and easy to work with. My room and bathroom were perfect and I had many different places I could sit and enjoy their property overlooking the lake enjoying their gazebo and a beautiful living room to enjoy as well. The kitchen was absolutely gorgeous. The breakfast Debbie fixed was outstanding. I would recommend this property to anyone. It was such an enjoyable stay. Thank you Allen and Debbie for a beautiful time.

Our stay was way beyond our expectations from reading all the 5 star reviews. The property is one of the most beautiful homes that we’ve ever seen. From the moment that we drove up to the property we were in awe of the home and landscaping. And then to be greeted by two of the nicest people that you can imagine. Their hospitality made us feel like family. We most definitely hope to visit them again soon.
A beautiful view from a nice path.

Best place we ever stayed at!

Debbie and Alan were master hosts in every way. Everything was perfect. Conversations much enjoyed. The property was divine. A 10-star breakfast was served on a super-sized gazebo with 360 degree views of the property and lake with white swans swimming around. Gardens and paths colored the way with blooming flowers and frogs sunning themselves on lily pads. Babbling sounds from a waterfall and pond outside our bedroom window lulled us to sleep. It was magical. We didn’t want to leave.

Peaceful Beauty

Lovely craftsman built home. Gardens landscaping spectacular. Accommodations beautifully appointed. So comfortable. Large delicious breakfast. Lake views complete with Whistling Swans. Hosts Deb and Alan were so warm and welcoming. It was a much needed peaceful retreat for us from a sad day filled with sad news that we received as we were traveling to the North.
