Wonderful house in a peaceful location with beautiful views all around. The house is really well-equipped in the kitchen and we appreciated the little extra touches like the fireplace, lighted fire pit and remote control candles throughout - that actually worked! Ray , the property manager is amazing - very responsive and attentive. We will be back!

From start to finish this trip was AMAZING! Mr. Ray was accommodating and responded in a timely manner. The property was very well kept and had everything that was needed. Another thing that really stood out what that everything was labeled. We will definitely be booking another stay at The Pointe.
