Walking through the gates of this Garden Home was like walking through to a Secret Garden! It was beautifully cared for and the flowering bushes and plants were amazing. While we did not take advantage of the pool/Hot Tub, they looked very inviting. Inside was spacious and comfortable. Jim & Denise were wonderful Hosts and I enjoyed talking with them. Would definitely come again and recommend this property.

The backyard with pool, hot tub, bar area and all sorts of flowers and fauna was amazing! Property is close to anything you may need during your stay and the home itself was super clean.

We had a wonderful stay. We were visiting family nearby, so this was a good location for us. The property was very comfortable for 4 adults and our dogs.

We would strongly recommend booking this property, and we will return soon. Thank you for everything.

Best Vacation Rental yet! A true Oasis!

We rent vacation homes about three times a year, and this one was by far our favorite. The hosts were absolutely amazing—accommodating, friendly, and just genuinely awesome people. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at home.Their place is a true little oasis. The backyard feels like your own private resort—fun, relaxing, and beautifully maintained. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to make your stay comfortable and memorable.We truly couldn’t ask for anything better. Now we understand why this place consistently gets “10 out of 10” reviews—it deserves every one of them. We will definitely be booking again. Highly, highly recommend!

Perfect stay for me and my two kids

James was so responsive and the property was impeccably clean and great to crash at the end of a boisterous day with my kids. I cannot think of a single issue we had with the house the entire time we were there, and my kids were thrilled from the first moment we arrived. Full size washer and dryer were an extra plus for us since it was hot out, and the kids were swimming every day, so we did quite a bit of laundry while we were there. We will definitely be staying again!
