Every aspect of this property shows the extensive thought and care the owners put into this "home" as voiced in its description. From the completely stocked "gourmet" kitchen, fully appointed living spaces and tiled baths, everything was in one word, "perfect". Our family enjoyed both the indoors and outdoors. Truly a class act. Owners were immediately responsive to our inquiries and we look forward to future stays at the Thunderstick Farm.

Great place to stay away from all the noise. This is the place to come when you wanna get away and be with those close to you.

Our time at Thunderstick was a week of bliss! We are two couples and thoroughly enjoyed the set up of the house, as it includes two master bedrooms which gave us plenty of space and privacy. In addition to kayaking almost every day from Saint Johns Creek, we greatly enjoyed the sipping room, where we watched Eagles, ospreys, and herons hunting and traveling along the creek. The house is incredibly clean, well stocked, and inviting. While there were only four of us, the house could easily accommodate many more. Be ready for solitude, which is exactly what we were seeking. We appreciate the opportunity to spend time on this lovely property!

From booking to check out Renee and Dave could not have made our experience and stay any better! The house is beautiful. They have paid attention to every single detail. It is well stocked and labeled and the provide so many amenities to make it feel just like a home away from home. We stayed as 4 adults and 6 kids and had minimal need to leave the property. We spent our week canoeing, biking, fishing, craving, hiking, throwing axes and so much more. They take such beautiful care of the property and we absolutely plan to return again!

We loved our time here! The hosts had everything available to enjoy the space. The home is beautiful and spacious. The yard, dock, and boats allowed us to easily enjoy the outdoor space. 3 families shared the space easily. Great find!

Beautiful home with all the amenities! Our family gathered together at this home from three states to enjoy quality time together! When we arrived, we immediately realized that this home was perfect. It had 5 large bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, a BEAUTIFUL view, large windows that provided viewing access for everyone, bikes, kayaks, and many games for all ages. The home was VERY clean and we were happy to find towels in each room and other stocked items - like paper towels and toilet paper, etc. The large kitchen and main level allowed us to eat together and do puzzles on the large table. This home truly met all of our needs across our multiple families and we are already hoping to gather there again in the future!

This newly-built home has a lot going for it. Lots of land with water front views and activities. The host provided canoes and kayaks, bikes, and outdoor games. We used the fire pit and lounged “over the water” at the end of a long dock. Renee is a great communicator and answered any questions we had. The area is far afield but interesting with a National Park, a museum honoring Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railway and one very good restaurant. Stop at Walmart on the way and stock up. Once you are there you won’t want to head back into Cambridge! The only downsides - manageable insects and a nearby neighbor with a rifle shooting range (and the desire to use up endless ammo until 1 a.m.). Overall, we loved it and recommend it for families that want to get away from the crowds (total population [we think] on Taylor’s Island probably <100). Enjoy!

Delightfully surprised with the house's furnishings, extra inclusions, amenities, space to spread out and the waterway views.

We brought our adult children and grandchildren (6 children all five and under) to the Thunderstick lodge for a week. Everything was immaculate and we had everything we needed. Plenty of room for everyone. Renee was a great host, responsive to questions and checked in during our stay. We were concerned about extra/5th bedroom and we’re happy to find a room divider which added a layer of privacy and a gate that kept the children out of the room. The river is far enough away from the house that it was not a concern with the children. They had plenty of room to run in the yard and rode bikes in the drive at the front of the house. We enjoyed biking around the island with views of the Bay. The stars were brilliant at night with sounds of nature in the background. There was plenty to do at the house, and on a rainy day we found “Cabin Fever” in Cambridge to be fun for everyone. We also enjoyed the community pool in Cambridge with its zero degree entry. The internet is not the best for streaming, as stated, so we had a tablet with downloaded movies for the little kids. The small access to the river could be larger - the grandkids loved wading in the river. We rarely return to the same place but this would be the exception, it was perfect.

The property is a true mansion. It is much more beautiful and scenic than pictures. Property is all green and vibrant now. The house has everything you can think of from dozen of indoor and outdoor games to a crab catching trap on private pier. Kitchen itself is a work of art. Lux sheets and comfortable beds ( good mattresses not cheap soft ones) stole my heart. A few days wasn’t enough to do everything the property has to offer. I wish could stay for longer.

This property exceeded our expectations. The house itself has recently been renovated and everything inside was pristine. The layout of the home, decor, and cleanliness were all top notch. The kitchen was fully outfitted with everything we needed to prepare all our meals at home including a big grill outside. We utilized just about all of the activities -- ax throwing, kayaking, hiking, bike riding, cornhole, fishing and crabbing. The property is absolutely beautiful and large and there is plenty of room for the kids to run around and play. The kids especially loved seeing all the wildlife -- tiny frogs, sika deer, turtles, turkeys, ducks, crabs, and fish. Our favorite part of the home was the upstairs sitting room -- we sat there and had coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening -- it provides the perfect view of the sunset over the water. Lastly, Renee, the host was wonderful. She was so communicative via email and the VRBO app and left a little welcome basket for us upon arrival. While we used this property as a family vacation home, I can see how all types of visitors would love this space including outdoorsman, friends' trips, or family trips with folks of all ages.

I can't say enough how We really enjoyed our time at this location!!, the listing and pictures don't do justice how nice everything was, from the communicative host to the clean house, the peaceful location, the games, furnishings, the activities on the water and plenty of acres to explore. Definitely recommend this listing to anyone and we hope to be back!
