Plenty of space for 8 people. Outdoor sitting area with pizza oven was a great way to get everyone together and out of the house. Game room was a big hit with kids.

The house was large enough for everyone to have their own space if needed. Beds were very comfortable. There were plenty of games, pool and pingpong tables, darts, TV and projection screen for family members to watch F1 races. Appliances were quality and the neighborhood quiet. We didn't get to check out the outdoor floats, boats, etc so I can't speak to those but they were more than adequate size. The owner reached out and answered all of my questions in a very reasonable time. We definitely recommend this property.

Perfect family getaway
This property is amazing and absolutely perfect for spending quality time together! We had an awesome trip and made so many great memories!The house is packed with things to do—our family especially loved the game room, which was a big hit! The outdoor lounge was ideal for peaceful family dinners, and we really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub at night.It’s just a few minutes walk to the beach, which was great! We had a great time hanging out on the river.The host was fantastic—communication was clear and timely, and was readily available and responsive if we had questions.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend for families looking for a fun, relaxing, and well-equipped getaway!
