The house is even more amazing than we remembered. The property managers are the kindest sweetest hosts and we had the most beautiful stay. Everything was clean and easy and accessible. The grounds were just lovely. The kids enjoyed the vineyard and apple trees and going to see the horses and donkeys. The hike to the creek was beautiful and the zip line and trampoline and row boats as fun as ever. Thanks for the most wonderful weekend. We will cherish the memories until we can come back and do it all again! ##### Katy W.

We stayed 3 nights in this beautiful home in May of 2024 to host a family celebration. The weather was perfect and the property was gorgeous. The trees & flowers were blooming and everything was a gloriously green. There are two adorable bungalows with their own bathrooms located on the grounds. There’s also a large cottage room that’s connected to the main house with a huge bathroom and walk-in closet. For fun there’s a volleyball court, tennis court, basketball court, a lake you can swim in, not to mention an awesome library! In the evenings we hung out by the firepit, barbecued & enjoyed the beautiful night. It was a magical 3 day weekend with my family and we can’t wait to book another trip next year!! The owner and caretaker were great with communication & were so welcoming. Absolutely love this place, it deserves 5 stars for sure!! ##### Kimberly L.

It was awesome and more than what we could have even expected even after seeing the beautiful pictures on VRBO. This was an off-site meeting for nine of us to strategize for next year and continue some long overdue team building. Pop’s Place gave us everything and more. We all love to cook the kitchen/big room set up was perfect for us. Usually, each year, we do an outside venture while staying where we stay, but this time we didn’t leave this oasis because it offered everything we could possibly need! We loved this place so much, we can’t wait to return. Many thanks to our host the owner, Stephanie, and Tracy who is the caretaker on property who was very gracious with her time and assistance! Until next time!!! ##### Rodney H.

Pat & Kathleen were such gracious hosts! We had a large group for an engagement party! There is so much to do on this property! From fishing to basketball there’s something for everyone. Our group all couldn’t believe how magical the home and property are! The book shelf in the main house is the focal point of the home. The outdoors is where our guests mainly were for much of the day at the pond riding the zip line. If you are considering this place you must go! You won’t have an experience like this place elsewhere! We will be coming again based on the feedback we will be making this a yearly experience! Thanks so much! ##### TINEESSA N.

Nothing about our trip could not have been better. We were a large group, multiple families with kids and adults of all ages. Before even arriving, the communication with Kathleen, the property manager, was great. She was so friendly and answered all of our questions about the house and was very helpful. When we arrived, the property was breath taking. Everything exceeded expectations. The house is amazing and well stocked with games, books, linens, full kitchen with all you might need, and plenty of outdoor equipment for the kids and adults to play with. The pictures simply just don’t do this place justice. Most of all, Kathleen and Patrick are amazing hosts. They were there to greet us upon arrival and show us around. They live on the property but do not invade your privacy during your stay. They are so friendly and helpful if there is anything you need. Patrick showed us some great places for hiking and where the creek was. The pond, zip line and animals on the property kept the kids (and adults) busy throughout the day. We will definitely be booking a return visit! ##### Jennifer V.
