Beautiful area and overall house. Waking up to deer outside the windows was beautiful. Huge space and bedrooms. Not ideal for children or elderly. Socks were dirty when walking around the house. A lot of spiderwebs so we couldn’t enjoy the balconies. The 5th bedroom is not part of the main house. You have to enter through its own door in the quad area. Not enough trash can space for our stay but the owner was aware and his cleaners were helpful.
