We really enjoyed our stay overall. The house was a great size, and the location was fantastic.A few things could be improved, though. The outdoor furniture was disappointing. Two of the chairs were broken when we arrived, and the remaining furniture was very uncomfortable. With a house like this, you naturally want to spend a lot of time outside, so having comfortable, functional outdoor seating would make a big difference.The third floor was also extremely hot during our stay. We only discovered the day before we left that the thermostat for that floor was hidden behind a picture. We never would have thought to look there and simply assumed the third floor was hot because it was the top level. Some instructions about the thermostat locations would have been very helpful.Finally, the listing mentions several great amenities, but we didn’t learn until after booking that many of them require an additional fee. We had planned on using the gym every day, especially with our teenage boys, so that was disappointing.Despite these issues, it’s a great house in an excellent location, and we truly enjoyed our time there.

Our family had a wonderful time this past weekend at Once Upon A Stream. Our young boys loved the lower level setup with the bunk beds and the foosball table, and most importantly they spent both days down exploring and playing in the creek. There was ample space to spread out when necessary so our little one could nap or so grandparents could relax. It really was a perfect setup for our family. Plus, it was close to multiple easy waterfall trails which we enjoyed as well.

The house was beautiful, clean, and well equipped. We traveled with a baby and dogs and the house supplied dog bowls and a crate. It also had a port a crib, booster seat, and a hiking backpack for the baby. The fire pit area was really nice and the dogs loved walking the trail down to the stream. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.
