Wide open spaces
I loved that this property had lots of space for our party of introverts to spread out. The views were lovely and the kitchen was a dream. Would be perfect for large family celebrations. Unfortunately, the hot tub was broken, so we did not get to take advantage of it, but I did enjoy my morning coffee on the porch it was on.
