New Secluded Driftwood Forest House

ReemaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

Book this house! We absolutely loved our stay here! The owner was extremely responsive and accommodating. The home was immaculate, with every amenity you could need. It is centrally located to many different restaurants, wineries and breweries. It felt safe and quiet and we saw so many deer on property. We ended up having to bring our children (4 & 3 yo) and it was perfect for them as well. They even found some kids toys and books to keep them busy and happy. The beds are very comfortable.. The showers heat up quick and provide great water pressure. It is the perfect home for 2 families or 4 couples with the bedroom and bathroom setups. Book it! You will not be disappointed. We can’t wait to come back!

Family-Friendly Ranch Retreat with a Stunning Pool

ThorstenRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Again we had a pleased stay. This was the second time we stayed an Ashley’s and Burnetts House. It is the perfect place for a quiet, relaxing and recharging vacation. Everything you need is there, house is clean, lot of space but the highlight is the patio and pool area. The only fly in the ointment is, that there is no shade at the pool area. Burnett and Ashley are always reachable. They made the whole stay as easy as possible. Thanks again, will be back some day

Jane was more than accommodating and went the extra mile to bring my pup some treats on our second day of the trip. My puppy had found some thing to disassemble while I was out on business and Jane an agreeable and negotiable as I promised to pay for anything that needed to be replaced. She didn’t even request any amount as to what I need to pay so I paid what I deemed a fair amount would be and she was more than agreeable with what I had offered. 10-10 would definitely recommend and would stay here anytime I was in town.
