Meet-up at the Nest

We met our kids (who live on the east coast) at Natures Nest and really enjoyed our time here. We cooked 2 big meals and the kitchen had everything we needed…even spices & coffee. And Marco left some apples, sweets and wine for us! He was very responsive and helpful anytime we had questions, and gave us great recommendations. Everything was great!

A 10-day retreat

Our family stayed at this airb&b for 10 days. It was an incredible retreat removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The home is beautifully decorated with unique furniture pieces and art work. In addition, the common living space is perfect for lounging and watching TV. The patio was perfect for dining and was large enough to accommodate friends .

Peaceful place

Beautiful spacious well decorated home. We loved our stay. Mostly enjoyed the outdoor patio and fire pit. We came as a family from our of state for my father in laws funeral. Our only issue was our phones had no reception, so I had to drive into town to get to my information regarding WiFi and find door locking information. It took time out of our visit to figure things out. A book with info might have helped us. Otherwise everything was perfect! Thank you!

Outstanding House

Not the regular rental This house and its host are outstanding. You are not faced with the regular IKEA furniture. Instead, you find a home that is carefully and tastefully decorated. In every corner you can see that the owner did not choose the furniture and appliances for his guests, but for himself. You will find designer furniture, exclusive wine glasses for different types of wine, cocktail glasses with an accompanying recipe book, a really big refrigerator, a TV that is massive (more like a cinema), two washing machines, a Genesis grill (instead of the usual Spirit), etc. I could go on forever. Oh, and for those of you who need to work during your vacation: There is a comfortable antique desk and the internet is really fast. In short, there is attention to detail and the outfit is perfect. The same goes for Marko, the host. He was very welcoming, responsive and helpful from the start. Answers to our questions came within minutes. He suggested some beautiful places in the area (e.g. a waterfall 5 minutes drive away), made some wonderful restaurant recommendations, gave us tips on how to use the fireplace and grill. Over the days we stayed at the Nature's Nest we developed a very friendly relationship even though we were only texting. We will definitely be back.
