Comprehensive kitchen - able to cook just about any thing! Great barbecue area for a big barbecue, we had family of 12 for barbecue and never felt cramped. The host was quick to respond to queries and problems with solutions. The beds are super comfortable and almost black out curtains. This is our 3rd visit to this property and we love it!

Wonderful home

We spent 2 nights here and had a wonderful time. We were a family of 9 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone, including the dog. Very secure and private yard for her. The property was spotlessly clean with great quality furnishings. Definitely would stay again. Thank you
