Amazing place to stay, it's absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed sleeping in comfortable beds with plenty of room to gather. The back room has 4 queen sized bunks, a pool and ping pong table and a basketball hoop game. The home has plenty of space for a large family.

Nice, cozy place that makes you feel right at home
We rented this house for Thanksgiving break, and it was the best decision we could have possibly made. The house was clean and tidy. Communication with Mike was excellent, since he was very attentive and responded in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic family getaway
Super fantastic from the well stocked kitchen to the amazing game room which entertained all ages. To the smore making firepit and cozy hot tub to the comfy beds and the board/card games. We had a group of 12 from 5 months to 57 yo and everyone had an amazing time. We cannot wait to come back!
