This house was so much more than we expected. We weren't there for 30 minutes and saw a few deer on the property...and then more each and every day! The house is absolutely homey. It is comfortably furnished and the owner has thought of everything. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags etc. So many of the things I brought with me, I didn't have to use. I love to cook and the kitchen here is well stocked with all the utensils you need to make a wonderful meal. The ample outdoor space gives 4 separate outdoor areas for gathering and relaxing, which I think would be ideal for a large group. And, the bedrooms are thoughtfully placed, one in the basement, the master on the main floor, and two more upstairs. Everyone can have their own space to unwind! Also, I had no problem using the WIFI so working a bit while on vacation was easy. Phone service was fine as well. The owner was extremely responsive to me and made sure to check in with us throughout our stay. She recommended a nice place to hike and also, a wonderful place (the Marina) to take a bottle of wine and watch the gorgeous sunset. My husband and I both were able to completely relax and as the title of this review states, felt like we were "On the Steps of Heaven". I can not recommend renting this property enough! You won't be disappointed! We will be back again very soon!
