This place was wonderful!! It was easy to get to from the city, and the grounds were incredible. The house is spacious with plenty of communal and personal spaces. We loved the old farmhouse aesthetic and had a great time.

Spacious home on beautiful property
This home provided lots of space for extended family attending my son's graduation. The location felt very rural, but we were a 15-20 minute drive from most of our dinners and activities. A rainy Memorial Day weekend limited our outdoor enjoyment, but the home was very comfortable and we enjoyed viewing the lush yard, beautiful pond and wildlife from inside. Saw a heron, a groundhog (novel for us from CA) and a nest of young birds. The beds are very comfortable and the updated bathrooms were great, and great heating system kept us warm. We had a hot water issue that was quickly resolved by the management. Kitchen could be better equipped with nicer and more plentiful dishware and cutlery and there were some other small issues that if addressed could enhance the visitor experience. Overall this is a very comfortable and large house and I would recommend it.
