About the host
Hosted by Maggie Lynn
Hi, I'm Maggie: full time mother of two, occasional artist, and loving wife. Making spaces clean, beautiful and welcoming has always been a passion of mine, and so becoming a VRBO owner felt like a perfect fit. My background is in teaching; a career that I devoted myself to for a decade. When I'm not working on the Beauty on Belden, you can find me running, painting, chasing my kids, reading books, and listening to music.
Why they chose this property
Open the door to the 4 seasons room and you will see all my reasons for this property. The leaded glass transom windows are surrounded by a verdant landscape: it's beautiful and calming to the soul.
I love that each bedroom has its own private bathroom. This is so important when friends and families book vacations, but really, who doesn't love to have their own bathroom?!
The four seasons room is a lovely place to unwind, especially in the evening when it can be closed off from the rest of the house via the living room door. Anyone who went to bed early can still sleep peacefully while the night owls continue to chat!
