Great Family Holiday Weekend

Our family had an amazing stay at your property. The amenities, decor, supplies and hospitality exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of space for all of our families and the proximity to everything was perfect for us. We truly look forward to making this an annual trip for our family.

Exactly as Listed

The home is exactly as pictured on the Vrbo site, but even more beautiful in person. My family loved the home. It was so spacious and relaxing. The kids were able to play and just enjoy themselves. We cooked the majority of the time we were there and the kitchen was perfect. We did have to pick up a few seasonings for our taste but all and all perfect. The house was lovely. My only negative comment will be about the bugs (roaches) that were in the lower level bathroom. So everyone basically showered upstairs after our first night there. My family would visit this home again.

Easter reunion

Our Easter get together was grand. This house was located close to all the activities, has a delightful balconey over a nice backyard in a quiet neighborhood. There was plenty of room for boardgames, dancing, storytelling and a beautiful kitchen for fixing meals. The teenagers enjoyed the downstairs 'dormitory' of beds with the game room next door. Our only complaint is the number of bathrooms. We were standing in line for the showers sometimes. Otherwise, I loved this house.

Great place for a group gathering

Rented the house with 2 other families and had a bunch of our kids from college stay over. Party room downstairs was perfect and as an added bonus the concrete walls really kept the noise down. Only negative was the day of I got a new set of agreements that were much more restrictive than the terms set here by the management company and had to sign them or else we couldn't stay that included listing every person staying and all kinds of warnings about noise and gatherings. We had no issues but I didn't like getting that after I'd already agreed to terms, especially because we did have a number of college kids over.

Quick get away

We stayed at this beautiful home the night before our cruise left. It was a lovely, spacious home with comfy beds, a large kitchen and living area and an awesome basement with more bunk beds, a game room and wet bar downstairs!!! Would definitely recommend!

Roach infested and items broken

House is very nice and roomy but unfortunately is infested with roaches. When we got up in the morning to use the kitchen door cabinet was broken, not all stove burners function, there were roaches in the refrigerator and countertops and keruig did not work for coffee. Also remotes missing in rooms

We were extremely satisfied with this property. The pool table was a hit with everyone. The air conditioning system worked spectacularly. Not sure who the cleaning crew for this property was, but they should get a raise for their hard work.

Wish there would've been something that told us more about the house.

There were blood stains on our pillow cases, there was dirty forks, and one of the dryers didn't work. For the only we spent we thought it would've been cleaner.
