Wonderful weekend
The property was perfect for our family group of 17. Single son took cottage. 2 couples in Carriage House and Two couples in Ranch House. Hubby and me and 6 grandkids in main house. Ping pong a big hit with our group. Also pool and pickle ball enjoyed as well as horse shoes and ring toss. Youngest daughter brought their 4 square volleyball net and set it up near Carriage house. Kitchen in main house, where we cooked most meals was well stocked. A big plus was the wet bar with ice maker and drink frig. Used propane grill one evening. Worked great. Best part was the Aggie spatula for grill….we have 3 Aggie grads and one Aggie sophomore. Guess the only con would be not enough indoor seating for meal time but we managed. Another round table with 8 chairs would help in game room. There is room to add even with ping pong table. Not impressed with fancy stove but that is preference. Crazy ants in bathrooms and found no bug spray so maybe add that. I always bring extra toilet paper and paper towels but plenty of TP and only used one of our PT but we were also using for napkins. Plenty of trash bags. Plenty of seating around pool. One umbrella was broken. Nice restroom at pool house. Boo and Simba are sweet. Simba is spoiled and we helped. Animal lovers. Can’t say enough about how wonderful the weekend was and how much we enjoyed your home. Highly recommend. Thank you for sharing.
