This home has it all from kitchen supplies to a dumb waiter. We loved the vintage touches all throughout. The kids truly stormed the castle upon entry! Even though the home was mostly vintage, everything was spotless… including the bedroom carpets! The water pressure was unbeatable! This was the first rental property that had absolutely every single thing we needed for cooking! Also, the kitchen is updated and quite nice. The water is very nice as it’s in a little inlet with kayaks and a canoe for enjoyment. There’s lots of shade in the yard through the day making it very nice to sit out and relax while the kids played in the water. We definitely would recommend this property to anyone looking to have a memorable trip with their family.
