The house was great for our stay. The open layout of the house allows everyone to be involved with each other. The downstairs has 2 bedrooms, the beds were comfortable, and 2 bathrooms with a walkout to the backyard. There is a great deck that gives you a nice view of the countryside. Highly recommend if you are looking for a relaxing countryside getaway. The host was responsive and they even left a container of treats for our dog.
