Beautiful home with professionally landscaped outdoor area to relax or play some games. Somewhat in the woods but so close to everything…the lake, restaurants and shopping.

Absolutely amazing experience! The house is beautiful and has everything you will need- fully stocked kitchen for cooking and grilling, comfortable seating areas for movie nights, fun games including arcade and foosball. The gardens are spectacular with a perfect fire pit area- our family loved watching and feeding the fish in the koi pond. Tyler was a fabulous host who made check in and check out a breeze, stocked the house with everything you could possibly need, answered questions fast, gave great recommendations for things to do in the area and even left a welcome gift. Hope to stay again in the future.
