Enjoyed staying here gathering our family together. Host was wonderful with quick communication. We cooked and utilized the kitchen everyday. Would have liked a few more small kitchen appliances, but the Nespresso machine was a great plus! Rooms and bathrooms nicely appointed. The garage space was also greatly appreciated.
