Jan 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Christmas Celebration This year for Christmas me and my family wanted to get away and spend Christmas away from home. I was happy to have found this beautiful Farm house available, it was very clean and inviting, everything we needed was there in the house, the owner kept the line of communication open from the moment I booked his home, David was very fast in responding to any questions and made it clear that he was available if we needed anything else. Me and my family wished we could’ve stayed longer because their home felt so comfortable, it was very spacious, the kids were entertained throughout our stay because the owner had so much games available for them. I would definitely recommend this home and I would love to visit again in the Summer time so we can utilize the lake. Thank you so much for being such a great host, God bless you 🙏 ##### Queen B.
