The Retro Rambler

AnnaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

My friend and I stayed here for a birthday getaway, and it was absolutely perfect! The place was cute, clean, and exactly what we needed for a relaxing weekend. The host was incredibly accommodating—letting us check in early and sharing awesome recommendations for hiking spots and local food. There were so many thoughtful touches throughout the home that made us feel welcome and comfortable. We’re already planning to come back in the fall to do it all over again!

We truly enjoyed spending a week in this beautiful home. It gave us wonderful memories and gatherings, and the dedicated workspace was especially valuable for someone works remotely while traveling. The surroundings are peaceful, and the backyard is absolutely lovely. In fact, my little child even suggested we buy the house and live here forever—he enjoyed it that much! We all did.
