This property is truly unique…from the cow bell lights to the bourbon barrel sink in the half bath! The converted barn is roomy yet cozy. The bedrooms were very comfortable and I never ran out of hot water in the shower. Beautiful views with privacy but 15 minutes to restaurants and shopping. Excellent communication with the host. Would definitely stay here again!!

Peacefully relaxing

We had such a relaxing week! This place was so peaceful and quiet, and centrally located to all the attractions we wanted to visit. The beds were comfortable, the living area was spacious, and the kitchen was well equipped. The owner was very nice and quick to respond when we had questions. We have recommended this place to several people already and would love to go back some day.
