Friendly, generous hosts in a lovely spot
We were greeted immediately upon arrival. J and K were kind enough to walk into town with us to point out good places to eat. They made us feel right at home. They are a lovely couple with a cool little dog 🐶. We greatly appreciated their hospitality.

Fine Boondockers Welcome ambassadors
Hosts are very engaging, helpful, and welcoming. Got in touch with us to advise of a favorable change in approach conditions to the site, guided us in, and even gave us flowers from their late-season garden! The short walk to the village was lovely.
We'll hope to stay again.

Great Stay
We had a great stay at Spartan Hometown. The location was easy to find and get into.
Our hosts met us and made us feel welcome immediately. We had several great conversations about traveling. They are very knowledgeable about the area and made several good suggestions about things to see and where to get decent food.
We will request to stay with these hosts again when in the area, and highly recommend that others do the same.
