Beautiful Weekend Getaway!

We loved this property, finding it perfect to host our group for a weekend getaway. It was located in a quiet area but was still quite close to town for easily accessible restaurants and activities. We would absolutely return!

Close to Town / Quiet Location

The house is very large, the downstairs living room is smaller. Good for 4 adults. The upstairs has a massive game room. The house is very clean and cozy with a nice fenced backyard. Our favorite part was the trailhead right next door to take a quick hike and walk the dogs. The house is 10 minutes from the grocery store and right outside of TC to give a quiet and peaceful place to relax.
