Great For A Private Getaway!
First off, Susan was a wonderful host. SUPER communication and response time, and she had tons of suggestions for things to do/eat/see. Next, the house is huge and great for larger groups. Plenty of rooms for everyone (each with it’s own bathroom!) and a lot of common areas to spread out in.Lastly, the pool was wonderful! Huge and a great temperature. Our stay was just a couple of nights but if you are looking for seclusion and privacy this is it.
