The space Our house is located in Pleasant Valley, about 5 minutes outside of Oakland. We are in farm county. The house is in the middle of the woods on about an acre and a half.

Each bedroom has blackout curtains to help you get a good nights rest. Ceiling fans in each bedroom will help keep you cool at night. Cozy up on the couch in front of the wood burning fireplace. Watch a movie on the Roku tv, or play a game. Memories are waiting to be made. There are two porches, one on the main level, and one upstairs. Both porches have two rocking chairs that are perfect for enjoying morning coffee or watching the sunset in the evening. There is a deck in the back of the house with a hot tub and table for outdoor dining that seats 6. Hot tub can comfortably seat about 4 adults. We have a fire pit perfect for s’more making, and a hammock that is a great napping spot. Guest access Access to the entire house, except the garage. Other things to note Please note, there is no air conditioning. In the summer, cracking open the windows to let the mountain air in helps to cool down the house in the evening. We can provide fans for those hotter days. Given the rural location of the house, occasionally, outside critters may find their way inside. We try our best to keep them out of the house, but cannot guarantee they won’t find their way inside.
