This house had absolutely everything we could ever need! My granddaughter and I typically make cinnamon rolls when the family is together and I thought I had better bring a rolling pin but lo and behold. the kitchen was so well stocked, there was even a rolling pin. This house is gorgeous with gorgeous views and close to everything. There was a great area for us all to be together and play games. We will definitely come back!

Communication was quick and friendly throughout the entire process.The house was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. One of our favorite features was the beautiful park-like setting.

Thus luxury house is beautifully decorated and updated. We enjoyed the open floor plan, comfortable furniture, and views of the lake. As a bonus my adult children (and husband) had fun with the video game. The house was very clean and the off-street parking is easy to access.
