It was one of the best rentals we have ever stayed in! We especially loved the record player and soaking tub. Communication with the hosts was very clear. We appreciated all the recommendations in the area to check out! We would definitely return. ##### Karen W.

The owner Chris was very pleasant to communicate with. We arrived at a gold mine. Chris & Ryan have created a sanctuary of calm. The special amenities, cleanliness, thoughtfulness of the owner surpasses any other Airbnb I have been in. A slice of heaven. Cannot go wrong with booking this guesthouse. ##### Sandi P. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Skye E. 25 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Absolutely stunning place to stay. A great deal of care and effort went into putting this place together and it absolutely shows. Chris and Ryan clearly proud themselves on being excellent hosts, and they should.My only complaint would be the mattress. But that has more to do with personal preference than the stay. Honestly, even with that, we can't wait to stay again and as I write this in our current stay, I wish we were already back. ##### Skye E. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nikki B. 24 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Girls Weekend Our best friend of 15 years moved to Stockton Springs and we took a trip up to visit her after she recently had a baby. We found this property listing and immediately fell in love. When we opened the door we truly sat there in awe for a moment. Chris & Ryan truly thought of every detail. From the personalized gift basket, to the cozy robes, to the record player. It was so cozy and welcoming. If we could move in we truly would! We will definitely be reaching out to stay here again on our next visit. Thank you so much for your hospitality! ##### Nikki B.
