ArkansasRelaxing Getaway
Left on 11/30/2012 for a stay in October 2012
What a great experience for our family girls trip. Tucked away on one of the back roads with all the privacy you could imagine! Wildlife abounds in this area and you can relax or spend the day exploring the area. We had a very nice time walking the woods below the house. We would stay here again.
Thank you for making everything so very nice for us upon our arrival.Response from Michelle McDonald - 12/04/2012

South CarolinaPerfect accomodations
Left on 07/17/2012 for a stay in June 2012
Rented for family get away - the house was immaculate, the owner kept in contact to ensure that we arrived safely and to feel comfortable that our reservation was met. The river is within walking distance for fishing and the wildlife is plentiful. The master bedroom is romantic with lovely deck, fireplace and own bath. Will visit this place again without hesitation. Thank you Michelle.

FloridaFantastic Family getaway
Left on 07/10/2012 for a stay in July 2012
My family had a terrific stay at the private paradise retreat. The home was clean and provided all the comforts of home. The owners did everything we needed to make sure we had power after a severe storm hit the area just before our stay. The home is located near Smith Mountain lake state park where we hiked and swam and watched fireworks on the 4th of July. Thank you so much for having us

Virginia Beach, VAA ladies weekend gataway
Left on 06/04/2012 for a stay in June 2012
The place was gorgeous and it was so nice to be away from everything that I deal with daily in life. Time seem to slow down so I can relax and enjoy my ladies getaway. The place was so cute and decorated so nice and was fresh and clean. Everything was there that was needed and it was easy to find with my gps. Besides spending time with my girlfriends my favorite part was the views of the mountain and visiting the lake and peace and serenity. Cant wait to take my hubby for a weekend gataway with him next and another with the kids.
