The house was amazing. Plenty of room for everybody

Our stay was very positive. It was a family getaway, and we were all able to stay in the house and enjoy each other. We choose this particular property because we had our grandchildren and wanted an indoor pool and game room. This house accommodates both. We had the pleasure to meet the owner, and she went above and beyond for all of us. If we had any questions, she was a phone call away. We would definitely consider going back. We would highly recommend this property to other families.

Great Place

My family and I stayed here for Thanksgiving for the second year in a row. The home is very spacious and comfortable for large groups. Everything you need for the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom are supplied as well as plenty of towels for the pool. All you have to bring is clothes and food. The host is very nice and easy to work with.

Exactly what we needed

This was a great property, and suited our needs perfectly. Expansive, but be prepared for cooler than expected pool water. That said, the surrounding pool area was very warm. The fireplaces that we looked were a perfect addition, and once they get the rest of them figured out, the ambiance will be even better. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking to have a quaint getaway with a bunch of friends and family.

Amazing stay at a special home

We had a wonderful time staying at this incredible property. Our family had a blast enjoying the pool, game room, and huge kitchen. We made so many memories and can’t wait to go back for the next big family celebration. The house was clean and it was great that everyone had a bedroom. There was so much space and our big extended family had plenty of room to be comfortable.

Early Thanksgiving

We brought all generations together for a luxurious stay in this perfect place. Kids and adults alike were thrilled for this second time around. Spotless, had all we needed to cook big meals. Our focus was family and it was a true joy to be together in this wonderful space, which allows for lots of different groupings …some come swim, some could hand, some in the game room, or simply easily nap in a quiet bedroom. Many thanks.
