Whiskey Barrel A-Frame Cabin Farmhouse, Hot Tub

Stayed here with some buddies while visiting for an event we go to every year in the area. The hot tub is a nice touch, and a great way to relax at the end of a long day. It was awesome having horses and being able to pet them and feed them carrots (not too many). Very peaceful place, and had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend there! We will definitely be back next year!

LienRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Location was excellent. Walkable to many restaurants, trader Joe's and more. parking was a bit tight, but definitely can fit 2 cars tandem in the driveway which was really helpful since there was very little street parking. The home was clean and Stewart was super responsive, even at 1am. Sorry about that Stewart! We had 8 ladies celebrating a birthday and there was plenty of towels and bathrooms and beds to go around. The 2 washer and dryers were useful but we didn't need it. Overall great stay and would stay again.
