Fantastic get away house

We’ve been looking forward to this trip for months. The kids were super excited, and the house did not disappoint in the slightest. They had everything we needed, it was well stocked and the extra garage with items was the best! You can see the owners pride in this house and it’s not just another “rental home”. Fantastic location, right where we needed to be.
