This was a great space for a large family get together. The pool was fantastic and we enjoyed it daily. The house was stocked with all the essentials we needed. The neighborhood is quiet and very lovely for walks. My only complaint was the internet being spotty at times. This caused the teenagers some stress , but forced them outside. So that was a good thing. We were very sad to leave, I’d stay here again for sure.

Beautiful, spacious property, great for large groups. Kitchen was stocked enough to cook and share meals. There were both indoor and outdoor games that made finding fun "at home" easy. Would 100% recommend this property.

Our communication with the owner was amazing! The house was very well kept and stocked with what we needed. There were a few things that could have been fixed before we got there. Like the toilet paper holder in the master bathroom and the ceiling fan/light in one of the front bedrooms. The living room television could have had regular broadcast television available. Unless we knew know how to work it. The pool was a disappointment to us when we arrived. Not filled, not filtered, and had a lot of lime to be cleaned. The outdoor games and pool items were worn out.
