Book with Confidence

While this home is a brand-new listing on this platform, we are experienced Superhosts with a proven track record of maintaining 5-star reviews across other major travel sites. We pride ourselves on providing high-quality hospitality, professional cleanliness, and a seamless "plug-and-live" experience for all our guests.

Guest Access

Guests will have access to the entire house except the garage that is reserved for storage. The Airstream trailer is also not for guest use.

Parking: Max 6 cars total on-site. Carpooling / rideshare is strongly encouraged. All vehicles must be parked on-site in the designated parking areas provided on the property. No parking is allowed on Comstock Mill Road or the shared driveway under any circumstances. This private road is narrow, and roadside parking can obstruct residents and emergency vehicles. There is ample space on the property to accommodate all guest vehicles.

The Neighborhood

This home is nestled in a very private, quiet location. Please be mindful of noise, especially while using the pool, as the property is located in a tight-knit community and noise travels. Most of the drive is on the highway, but the last mile or so of the drive is on a private, windy, bumpy, one way road. Please ensure this is something you’re comfortable with.

This hidden jewel is awaiting your visit and calling a peaceful mind.
