We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The outside space was so lovely, and the main area of the house was excellent. Huge kitchen with the biggest island I’ve ever seen. The master bedroom downstairs was excellent with lots of space and a very comfy bed. Our only concern was that the rest of the beds were located upstairs in a very bright and open loft. It made it a bit difficult to figure sleeping out with 3 young children but we made it work and had fun. The listing seems to be updated now to more accurately show the sleeping situation. We will definitely be back for another stay in the future!
Very nice place But really only 1 bedroom. A bathroom door would be nice. And would love VRBo To change their policy for communication and be able to have phone numbers to call and talk to the owner. Or at least text. Owner was on the property and wouldn’t say hello or wave or even smile. But having a fenced yard and dog friendly makes up for everything else. Would absolutely stay here again.
This is a gorgeous home on a lovely property. There are a lot of thoughtful touches in the design and stocking of the place. The kitchen is spectacular with a full commercial fridge, massive island / bar. The hot tub is custom made and presumably one of a kind. The sauna is fantastic. Our host Candice was easy to communicate with and thoughtful. The only surprise was that the upper floor is more of less dorm style in it's layout - a bunch of couples coming to the property might be looking for more privacy. For our purposes that wasn't a problem though. Super close to the store, lakes, mansons landing. Overall an amazing stay.
