This home was a great selection for our group and close to everything we wanted to do. It was clean and what we expected. The decks and furniture could have been cleaner but we made it work with a broom and wet cloth. So in the end it was a great stay.

Really nice place to stay. Really close to all attractions but secluded enough to make you feel alone. Owners were very nice and easy to get in touch with. They decorated for Christmas which made it feel like home. Pool table, game machine and hot tub so your never board. We were very happy and this home is definitely on our list!
