About the host
Hosted by Sherrill Owens
Im a retired government employee. My wife and I enjoy hosting and take great pride in offering a great stay in the home and make every effort to accommodate guests. I enjoy woodworking and watching basketball and football.
Why they chose this property
This is a beautiful area to host in. The home is surrounded with fields and woods and wild life , I think it’s truly beautiful .
What makes this property unique
Driving up to house on the blacktop drive is like driving into a park. You will have privacy but still close to a nearby convenience store and restaurant.
