“Justen is an excellent host – very prompt and easy to work with. We had a number of requests during our stay for miscellaneous items such as extra light bulbs, paper towels, etc. Justen would always provide the items quickly."
Rick

"This home is right out of a magazine - a private, luxury retreat with beautiful surroundings. It is exactly as advertised. It is secluded, but Madison made sure we were able to find it without any issues. She responded promptly to any questions. We had a great stay and definitely recommend it.
