I cannot say enough good things about our stay with Bonnie and her beautiful BnB. We are definitely going to go back for another stay sometime. My friends and I all quarantined and got tested ahead of time so the 13 of us could stay together for a 3 day new years gathering -- renting out the entire place. Our group came from DC, Baltimore and NYC and the location was perfect (2 1/2 hours for everyone). The house is up a hill off a side road, 10 minutes from the freeway and there was no traffic whatsoever. It absolutely felt like you were in the treetops when you looked out the window and was a perfect getaway from all the noise of city living! Ahead of the Stay: My communications with Bonnie was extremely thorough and professional. Anyone saying that there were concerns that weren't addressed or that they were a "fraud" was clearly not paying attention. She had 4 pages of details on what the expectations were, how the calculations go for the security deposit and cleaning fee, extra fee for people over 12, and the house amenities (ie firepit, pool and what else is provided vs not). Even with all the details, nothing was over the top from what one should expect with an airBnB or VRBO stay. Payment went smoothly and as expected, except for one unforeseen hiccup with someone stealing my cc number through Square (weird offshore wiring hackers) which Bonnie sweetly spent the day with the company on the phone helping me to straighten out even though it was absolutely not her fault. She was responsive to my many questions, always answering within 24 hours. She also detailed that she and her family do live in the apartment downstairs but that we wouldn't be bothered by them. NOTE: We were a little worried about them being there because we wanted absolute privacy, but there is soundproofing between the floors so we didn't disturb them, they never disturbed us, and we even appreciated having them! They never entered the area we rented during our stay, and our only interactions were outside after we went on a walkabout and we said hi to them as well as when their three adorably charming little girls came to hang out with us by the firepit -- which we absolutely felt like added something extra to our visit. We knew we could ask them to leave us alone at any time but why would we, they were so cute. The House and Location: There is a gazebo and firepit where we hung out, as well as 5 separate rooms which each had their own bathroom. We felt like we were living like KINGS!!! There are THREE jacuzzi and whirlpool tubs, THREE gas fireplaces that made the house incredibly toasty even in the middle of winter, and an incredible view (note also a beautiful sunrise). Three of the rooms had king beds in it. A number of them had walk-in closets as well. No one felt cramped. The beds were all comfortable and the living room space was absolutely perfect for what we needed it for -- with multiple couches for communal games and a table big enough for all 13 of us to dine together. They had a deck outside that was available as well but we didn't use it because it was cold out (being that it is Dec/Jan). They had a trampoline and pool too which we also didn't use but definitely would use if we went back in warmer weather! We were so impressed by the energy efficiency, conscientiousness and care put into the house, the house had solar panels, we never once needed to touch the thermostat, and they also take leftover food scraps to feed the animals in the woods. At the end of the stay, we called Bonnie up to go over the cleaning of the house and whether it was up to par with what she required. We were glad to make sure room by room it was fully cleaned (again she detailed the standards ahead of time for getting our cleaning fee back) and she said it takes her 11 hours to clean the place top to bottom by herself. I would recommend again and again hands down this incredible place with Bonnie and her beautiful family, and would absolutely give it 6 stars if we could! One of the nicest places I've been to and with the most wonderful people. Bonnie, if you're reading this -- we wish you and the girls all the best in 2021 and thank you so much for everything.
