This space is quiet and serene. It is close enough to town but not in the hustle. The yard and surrounding area were Loaded with wildlife. Several species of birds, bunnies and deer. The outside sitting space is nice for stargazing and the kitchen was stocked with all necessities to cook meals. Our stay was very special and our experiences will stay with us forever. The host was open and transparent and so welcoming. I highly recommend this property.

Stayed for three weeks in May 2026. My husband worked remotely during this period and didn't have any issues with the internet access. We also were able to stream all of our services at the same time. The property is off the road that leads to the Red Rock State Park. It is a little bit back there, so it was very enjoyable to be far from the road noise and near to so many trails. There are a number of horse trails behind the house and we did a number of hikes just from the back yard. We also grilled out a couple of times on the gas grill.The set up of the house itself worked very well for the two of us and my dad who visited a couple of times. Even with my husband having 4am work meetings right next door to where my dad was sleeping. The property management was very responsive and responded quickly to my inquiries. Definitely enjoyed our time at this property and would consider staying here again.

We had the best stay at Forest Retreat! It was nice to be off the beaten path a little, but still close to uptown, shopping, excursions, and restaurants. The house was extremely clean and well stocked with all the essentials. Perfect for our trip. Communication was excellent and all the suggestions in the house binder for hikes, things to do, and places to eat were appreciated. Would definitely recommend this cozy retreat!

Everything with the house was perfect. Most of our plans were cancelled because of the rain. But the house, being as warm and cozy as it was, made the vacation enjoyable. Staying in seemed to be perfectly fine with everybody.

Private getaway
A traditional farmhouse with all the things you need and newer appliances. A lot of natural light with many windows along with pull down shades for extra privacy. The home is very spacious inside and sits on a large private property. The managers have fantastic communication and are very helpful. We had a great stay and easy access to the main roads. Not knowing there will be gravel by the home, we're glad we rented an SUV. You'll want a vehicle that can explore the cities and get to your trailheads.
