Ms. Debi was very gracious & helpful. Property is nice & cozy but was a bit too isolated for me. If your looking to disconnect from the world & enjoy some alone time this is the perfect place for it.

The gardens are of the fairytale variety. My host greeted me with a warm smile and let me know that if there was anything I needed I could simply ask- but, no need as every detail was addressed. The accommodations were charming and oh, so comfortable. Hummingbird Hill was not only the perfect place to unwind, it was balm for the soul.

Lovely Escape

What a wonderful, quiet retreat! The host is very kind and generously shared eggs from their chickens! Lovely garden to enjoy and relax. Nicely located not too far from town/amenities, but tucked away from the road and noise.

Debi has created a slice of botanical paradise at her property. The location is lush with plants, flowers and singing birds (and chickens) to seranade you. The apartment is comfortably and beautifully appointed with a comfortable king bed, fully appointed kitchen (minus oven), dining area and a very nice bathroom. You can sit on the deck and chill on the chaise lounge or enjoy the two person swing as you peruse the landscape. We plan on a return stay in the fall. Highly recommend!

Great Location

Debi, the hostess, is so very accommodating and thoughtful. Checking in and out was a breeze. Necessary items were thoughtfully placed in case something was forgotten. I think my favorite thing was walking my dog and hearing the birds sing.

Amazing Apartment

Absolutely charming suite in the mountains. One of the increasingly rare "original P2P Homestays", you could really feel the love Debi has for sharing her space and the location. Our two year old husky was very excited as well. Will definitely stay again in the future.

Relaxing getaway in the woods

Our stay was brief but very relaxing. The space is private and well appointed with a full kitchen and king size bed. The TV could be a little larger but we really didn’t watch it anyway. I would recommend this location and would come back again.

Wonderful, relaxing cottage

My husband and I had a wonderful couple of days at Debi’s lovely mountain cottage and gardens. The pictures really do not do it justice and Debi was delightful to work with from the day we booked and throughout our stay. All the little extras she added for us were so appreciated and made us feel special. . Thank you so much, Debi!
