Greg has created a remarkable property for those seeking a quiet get-a-way. He was a perfect concierge upon arrival and we truly appreciated his knowledge of the area he has called home for so many years. In addition to a beautiful kitchen, large bedroom and a spacious, bathroom, Greg's home includes a wonderfully curated collection of items from his own family history. In addition to the many migratory birds we watched while sipping our coffee and tea, there were plenty of wild turkeys to watch and we even had a quick appearance of a fox! This was a wonderful place to stay and we hope to come again.

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of a Floridian road trip. Greg is an amazing host, his communication was 1st class from the moment we booked until we departed. The property is wonderful, full of character and we enjoyed learning about the history of the property and the artefacts within. We were here to enjoy the local wildlife, of which there is plenty, including many bird species in the garden. We would highly recommend a stay here.

My sister and I were in the area for a big family shindig over New Year’s even and day, and we wanted a place to retreat from the craziness…..Greg’s place was just that and more!Quiet, relaxing, well-appointed, and clean.Greg was available and gracious as a host, but not at all intrusive. He was also a wealth of information about the area. I would definitely stay there again, if I was in the area, and would not hesitate to recommend it to singles, ( including women, it was a very safe place), a couple, or family.
