Vanessa and Will are very generous and caring hosts! They were clear about what tasks needed to be done, welcoming of volunteering families and the accommodations were super cozy on a beautiful campsite.

These folks hit the ground running! Very respectful and engaged. It was our first experience hosting families with children and it was surprisingly refreshing. We would do it again! Highly recommend this crew to other hosts. I enjoyed learning about their lives as much as I did sharing ours. They are welcome anytime.
