My husband and I rented this property for us, a couple of our adult children and their spouses, and my mom for a 5 day weekend while in town for my son’s wedding. It was a lovely, festive home with plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable and offered lots of entertainment between events. The host was very responsive from booking through the end of our stay. If we find ourselves in the area with a large group, I would 100% look to see if this is available again and would highly recommend it!
