From the moment we walked in, the house was very welcoming AND a beautiful Christmas tree and lights on the hpuse outside. There were 9 of us and two pups. We had two others that couldn't make it last minute. But, tons of room for us all. A few key notes:

House was very clean and had enough rooms and bathrooms for everyone to have their own space. We will have to plan a summer trip so we can use the pool! Definitely recommend staying here and the host is very responsive to questions and provided all the necessary information we needed for a relaxed, fun stay.

Excellent house! Everything was upscale, elegant, spotless, and far beyond what we expected. The decor and atmosphere made it feel warm and relaxing. Truly a home away from home !With 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, there was plenty of space for our large group. The furniture was high end, the beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. Although we couldn’t use the pool due to the weather, we loved the patio and hot tub, which was ready when we arrived. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Perfect for a relaxing stay.A big thank you to Jeff for his quick responses and wonderful hospitality. We HIGHLY recommend this property and will DEFINITELY be back!
