No space
While the home has several rooms that people could enjoy they are filled with the owners stuff. Too much stuff!!! Medicine and bathroom cabinets filed with either owner or previous guest stuff. Stuff all over. We had to section off the room by the kitchen to put food and drinks.
No place in the kitchen to store food as one side of cupboard is filled with food. Plus there were ants in the cupboard. Kitchen was not stocked with utensils/pots and pans. We had to empty the fridge to make room for our stuff.

Great stay for NYE
Overall, the stay was great. The home and amenities are excellent. However, there were some cleanliness issues. There was an ear plug on the floor in the bedroom, there was a mouse trap in the utensils drawer, several kitchen items were dirty, there were cigarette butts on the back patio, and the downstairs rugs were stained and smelled like pet urine. There were no extra trash bags, paper towels, paper plates, necessities. We would still stay again though as we had a blast and the location is very convenient.

Plenty of space.
Family of 8 with a few kids and everyone had enough space to do what they wanted. If you wanted to have privacy you could, or you could hangout with everyone in the common areas.

Great weekend getaway!
Was a great weekend getaway for our family. Spacious with lots of places to gather together or have quiet times to ourselves -- this was a great home. And the view of the waterfall is truly amazing! We home to come back!
