We hosted a wonderful family gathering here for my husband's Papa, and he had an amazing weekend surrounded by his grandkids and great-grandkids. There was so much space and endless activities to choose from—fishing, archery, volleyball, and soccer kept everyone entertained!The house itself is fantastic and comes equipped with a game room featuring a poker table and plenty of board games. The owner is exceptionally helpful and quick to respond. When the Wi-Fi went out for a brief moment, she was on top of it immediately! We are so grateful for her hospitality and definitely plan on booking this place again.A few things to note: Lawn Care: The grass was quite tall during our stay, so we had to be extra cautious with the little ones who might not know to watch out for snakes.Ambient Noise: I loved watching the sunrise from the porch every morning, but do keep in mind that a loud generator or pond aerator runs constantly. You can hear it clearly from both the front and back porches, so it does mask the peaceful morning sounds of chirping birds and crickets.Overall, it was a lovely stay and a fantastic backdrop for making family memories!
