The place was perfect for our group of seven sibs. Since we are all seniors, we got a good workout on the stairs! The quiet of the surrounding trees was just what we needed.

Nice place
We enjoyed our stay. The house is well equipped with multiple beds, bedrooms and a stocked kitchen with nice pots, pans and knives, even a crockpot. The appliances are all top notch. It is easy access to Shanty, Bellaire and Glacial Hills, all reasons why we were there. I was disappointed that the steps and porch and driveway were not shoveled/plowed. It does not ruin the home but the basement bathroom fan must run constantly due to an unpleasant smell.
