Great spot for a family gathering

We needed a space for two families with adult and teen children, and the Federal Twist house was perfect. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated and very functional, and the common areas were comfortable and conducive to family gatherings. The house is close to the towpath and some other hiking areas. We would definitely stay here again!

Thanksgiving with a Twist

The Federal Twist House is everything that is stated and more. The home is immaculate, beautifully appointed, with beautiful views, and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking and hosting others. Our family really enjoyed our 3 days over the Thanksgiving weekend with plenty of space and privacy for all. I would highly recommend a stay here and hope to return again. Ty Molly!

Perfect Get-away

We, as well as our children (3 over 20 and 1 under 4) , really enjoyed staying at The Federal Twist. We all enjoyed watching the deer in the evening, the fox that graced the woods, and the animals (cow, burros) across the street really added to our enjoyment. It was the perfect accommodation. We all found it to be a beautiful place and one of the best that we have stayed in globally! Thank you for making this a perfect getaway for our family!

Charming Home

We stayed several days over our wedding celebration weekend. The property was simply charming and had all the space and amenities needed for a family with children, general adults and older family members. We had a wonderful time staying and exploring the different parts of the home, patio and surrounding areas. Sadly, our weekend was cut short by a wedding night storm and major power outage, which in addition to the lights, air conditioning and the refrigerator, also eliminated the entire water supply to the home, including showers, toilets and faucets. It lasted from 9pm Saturday to an eventual 4pm the following day, so there was no possibility for our large group to stick it out with no restroom use. All of our food spoiled in the fridge overnight and our post wedding family brunch at the house was cancelled due to the lack of power and water/ spoiled food. The owner addressed the unexpected issue with grace and we were truly sad to have to vacate early. I believe a new generator has been installed since the incident (the small generator in place at the time failed, which was my only gripe-it should have been routinely tested and could have saved our wedding weekend), so hopefully our “story” will not be a repeat and everyone moving forward will get to enjoy the home as much as we did. Just a bit of bad luck and bad timing in our case. We would definitely consider an anniversary stay to “re-do” the weekend. Wonderful for large groups and get togethers. A memorable stay!
