Peaceful country setting with pond and enough land to play games. Home was well equipped for family get together (8). Took lots of pictures, made lasting memories, and had an awesome holiday. Mark was easy to access and very responsive. Would be happy to stay again.

Our host, Mark, was very nice and responsive. The views from the cottage are so beautiful and this is a peaceful area. There were some much appreciated provisions available when we arrived. Beds and living room furniture were comfortable. Will definitely come back if we're ever in this area overnight again.

My family and I had a great time at the Ripple Pond getaway. We came to town for a wedding and to visit with friends. It was right around the corner from the venue and incredibly convenient. Our kids enjoyed walking around the pond and feeding the ducks. It was very peaceful and great to get away from the chaos for a few days! Thanks, for everything Mark!

A wonderful peaceful stay. Very clean and comfortable place. Of this owners property’s surrounding his large private pond, my family stayed in his three bedrooms/two bath single story home. One room includes bunk beds. Instead of a hotel nightly rate which allows for only three persons comfortably, for the same price, we where able to have a spacious house and bring four adults and two children. The amenities are hands down better than any hotel. My family will enjoy a long term relationship with this owner as he has big plans for the new year. He shared with us the plans for this Pond Retreat. He showed us this incredible community club/recreation house with games, sitting area, and even a fireman pole, he mentioned a small disc golf course, and possibly paddle boats- well I hinted at the boats would be fun. Just know, if you’re the Uber Eats grub hub ordering type, it’s not reliable for this area. This didn’t phase us. The house has a wonderfully equipped kitchen and gas grill. We spent a lot of our evenings by the pond and fire pit. In fact the owner encouraged us to enjoy a stroll around the pond and take in nature.
