Location
Access Road Conditions: Typical residential neighborhood. Decent clearance for 30 ft motorhome, or perhaps 40 ft total length of vehicle and trailer. These limits are due to one end of our circular driveway having tighter clearance and turn to pull in or out. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: Guests will be staying in our circular driveway. As long as we can get our cars out of the carport and up/down one side of the driveway we will be okay. Otherwise, tow vehicle may need to be disconnected from rig and parked at another location in the driveway or on the street.

Mary Ann and Al are the most kind hearted people you will ever meet! No wonder why my pup got attached to Al's hip the moment we met them :) I was having some leaks in the van and Al put time aside for us to pin point the source and fix it and they provided such great hiking recommendations in the area as well as places to work from. The neighborhood has the cutest homes and is so peaceful! it was the exact rest that my pup and I needed. Would highly recommend this host and their beautiful property and would def stay again!!!

Al and Mary Ann are perfect experienced hosts. Easy communication, welcomed us in person, had an extension cord ready for us to plug in, great level spot in the paved driveway. Very peaceful, beautiful neighborhood with easy access to Highway 74. Just a quick overnight trip on our way across NC but we were very comfortable and grateful for their hospitality.

fun chat with the host and nice tour of their van! Nice neighborhood to walk my dog and saw several deer as I came in and left the subdivision. Would love to stay again if in the area!

Arrived and was greeted by the hosts. Talked travel, trails and such! Got to see the craftsmanship of their van... beautiful! Slept peacefully, walked my dog in the neighborhood and enjoyed my stay!
