Our group enjoyed being able to stay together. The piano and pool table provided extra game time. The location of the bathroom between the downstairs bedrooms was inconvenient.

Delightful!
Fantastic house! The property is lovely, clean and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped. The pool and deck area worked out great. Plenty of seating, and hangout areas. Fishing was perfect for the kids. The fish are tiny but eager to chomp on those hooks. The house has lots of little knickknacks, games and books. All just great little touches to make the space homey and comfortable. We had a great vacation!!
