Summary: No one wants to get that phone call less than a week before your vacation, saying that the house that you had rented a year prior will not be available due to unforeseen circumstances. I was fortunate enough to secure a stay at the Ganister House, and it was an absolute delight. The property was truly exceptional, with features such as ensuites and mini-splits in every room, convenient trail access, and ample table space for games and puzzles. I wholeheartedly recommend this property. Having grown up visiting historical properties, I thoroughly enjoyed examining the house in detail and trying to understand the various renovations it has undergone.The presence of a well-tuned piano in the dining room allowed my 9-year-old daughter to begin iPad piano lessons during our stay, and she made remarkable progress in playing and reading music. (I am now considering purchasing a piano for our home as a result.)The fenced-in yard made it incredibly easy to accommodate our furry family member.My daughter shared that she experienced the best sleep of her life, describing the bed as akin to being in a cloud.I certainly hope we have the opportunity to stay there again.
