Absolutely stunning property!
We thoroughly enjoyed our winter getaway at The Porch House. Although the photographs accurately depict the home, it is even more beautiful in person! From the cozy fireplace to a fully stocked kitchen, no detail was overlooked! We hope to someday return during the warmer months in order to take full advantage of the screen porch and outdoor space as well. Thanks for a great stay!
