Charm, town accessibility, COWS! We couldn’t have asked for better during our stay! First and foremost the hosts took it above and beyond when we anxiously called them after getting a “shelter in place” alert on our phones due to weather and tornado’s. Without question they helped us with a plan to get access to the basement if we needed to, which from the two anxious mom’s with littles in the house it couldn’t have been more reassuring. Having kiddos with us aged 2,4, and 7 the house is about as kid friendly as it could be if that is something you are considering when booking! It’s within a very reasonable amount of time on the ATV if you are coming to ride on the Cheese Trail, along with bountiful parking, it is on quite a hill so bear that in mind! That being said the VIEWS from the property are something to be cherished! Overall great stay barring the weather hindering our trail riding, will absolutely be back!

Cute house! Needed to add more to the discrption of property

Cute place, well decorated. Stay was great. Couple things to be aware about.... No outlets upstairs in the bedrooms. They do provide a charging station outside of bathroom. No fans! They have 1 small window unit upstairs in 1 bedroom to cool the upstairs. This would not be good in very hot months. Bring fans! 1 unit downstairs, but its old. It works however made a really loud noise if it was over working. 9 people could stay however, only 1 shower to share. The bathroom door wouldn't shut. Has to be pulled up on to get it to shut. The property didnt state that there was a grill, but there was a brand new one which was nice! No curtain on any windows upstairs or downstairs nor blinds except for laundry room. Price was right, would go again if the simple things would be updated.
