"Amazing house and private location. We felt right at home and they had so many games and amenities to keep the kids entertained. The hardest part about everything was that we actually had to leave at some point. Our family definitely recommends this place and we will be back one day!!!! Thanks for everything!!!"
"Overall this was a really great place to stay! The house was very comfortable and nicely updated, and the hot tub and fire pit were great to have. They left s’more supplies for us and the house was well supplied with everything we needed. With the hot temperatures the weekend we went, it did get a bit hot inside, but that’s not an issue obviously most of the year. An overall good experience."
