The property is very new and well maintained. My family loved their accommodations with each couple having their own individual bedroom/ bathroom. The host was generous with their time to meet individual requests, she even printed my speech for my nephew's Groomsmen Dinner! The only comment is the lack of certain sundries such as, paper towels, kleenex in the bathrooms and salt & pepper in the kitchen. A suggestion is to have one main floor bathroom with a shower bar for accessibility. Overall the house is great for large family events or gatherings!
