Celebration in the Mountains
We (7 adults, 2 children) recently celebrated several milestone birthdays of those in our group by spending a week in Ellen's country home. The home is tranquilly and privately situated off a country lane overlooking the mountains with SPECTACULAR views and sunsets providing a peaceful and beautiful setting. The floor plan was very suitable for a group our size. The bedrooms were roomy, comfortable and well appointed. The number of bathrooms assured convenience and privacy for all of us. The pool was welcoming and delightful where we enjoyed the same views we had from the back of the home on the spacious west facing deck. There were 3 umbrellas for our use. Two were on the deck and one was by the pool. Unfortunately, only one on the deck was operational which was problematic as the afternoon summer sun became uncomfortable. Ellen said there were blinds and awnings ordered to help deal with the glaring sun on the back of the home but they had not been installed for our visit. While this would certainly help with the how hot the main living space became (the back of the home is all windows), obstructing the views is also not a desirable outcome. We were somewhat disappointed in the overall cleanliness of the home. The kitchen in particular would benefit from a thorough cleaning and the refrigerator from a purging of miscellaneous items left by prior guests. The same with the windows. Such beautiful views would have been even more appreciated had the windows been clean and clear. Ellen was excellent at responding thoroughly and quickly to any inquiry we had prior to our stay. We had an occasion to contact the property manager and he likewise was quick to respond. It would be helpful if there were a few more photos included in this listing (basement where the TV, ping pong table and laundry are located and a view of the back of the home from the outside to name a few). We had a delightful week together enjoying the many state parks, trails, and local sites/activities in the area. It was a very enjoyable and memorable week for our family.
