Liked: Location
The house felt open and airy the minute you walked in. The layout of the bedrooms is fantastic for families. The house is very clean and has all the necessities you could need and more. It’s amazing for pets with a fenced in yard and clean up bags provided. The hot tub is great. The use of the golf cart is the icing on the cake. The Host is a great communicator and I appreciate her quick response time!
