We enjoyed spending our time with family outdoors - on the bike path, at the creek, and in the back yard. Plenty of wildlife and fabulous views! House was comfortable and family-friendly.

Truly a majestic getaway! I have a feeling there is a lot of history associated with the house from all activities from hunting, fishing etc... Eric was great to deal with. Absolutely beautiful scenery! will definitely be back in the near future!

The property was exactly what we were looking for. The house was older with a quaint feel to it, but the bathroom was updated, and there was a newer spacious great room. The barn had games, bikes, and plenty of extra space to secure our bikes. We had a warm fire going in the fire pit on a cool night. The location near the bike trail was perfect for us to ride through the canyon and back. A great way to spend a long weekend!
