Great house, well stocked with cooking essentials and grilling gear. The stream that the property splits is quite idyllic. It’s minor, but a few of the fixtures and light switches seemed loose and ready to fall out of the wall. The upstairs bedroom on the left has a bed that’s shaky and hits the wall. In general we found the mattresses to be lacking and wished for more substantial bedding.
