Nice but remote
The house is very spacious and has plenty of room for a big group. It was nicely furnished with comfortable beds. Unfortunately, the cleaning crew didn’t do a thorough job. The linens were changed and bathroom was mostly cleaned but the kitchen needed help. I would also suggest having something, like a binder, that gives guests information about the area and things to do; emergency info; instructions for checking out, etc. The house met our needs for our group but it is really bare bones.
