Secluded property set in the woods next to a creek. It was nicely furnished, spacious enough for 4 people, and well equipped with a fully functional kitchen with decent appliances and all the necessary tools for making large sumptious meals for our group. We also enjoyed having a large washer and dryer for a couple of days in the middle of our vacation.

Excellent bottom floor retreat. The kitchen was very functional with basic spices and olive oil. Cookware is good quality as were dishes and silverware. The beds were comfortable and clean. Washer and dryer worked very well. This was a great place for our family of two parent and three adult children. It was clean, easy to find, quiet, and gave us a chance to rest and cook our own food in between Homer adventures.
