We scheduled the weekend at the house with our kids and their wife and girlfriend for my husband’s birthday. This was the perfect place to relax and connect. Play games and cook wonderful meals. The home had everything we needed. It was clean, comfortable and a great way to relax and unwind. I would definitely recommend this property.
