10/10 Excellent
"I think an out door space in the back will be nice, especially if you have mood lighting and fire pit for night sitting. I loved the front porch space with the view of the big tree early morning coffee- excellent coffee too. I brought my own hair dryer and I did need an iron and ironing board but chose to wear something else. Otherwise you offered great options in the kitchen and plenty of linens which were awesome. The drain for the sink in the main bathroom was slow off and on. It would clear itself if the toilet was flushed. We did not turn on the TV at all. I’m glad because we needed to do other things instead of that. Would love to come again."

"Dustin and Sophia were awesome hosts during our stay! They were very responsive and addressed the few issues we had right away, making sure we were comfortable throughout our visit. They checked in on us multiple times by messaging to be sure everything was going well at the house. What truly meant the most was their kindness and flexibility on our departure day. Since we had a Saturday Camp Meeting service that didn’t begin until 3:00 p.m., we asked if a late checkout might be possible. Not only did they graciously allow us to stay later, but they also let us return after service to gather our belongings and check out. This was such a blessing to us! We are truly grateful for their hospitality, generosity, and exceptional customer service."
