We stayed with family for my daughter’s wedding. This property was clean,spacious and perfect for our stay. There was not one negative. There were fans for people like me that need the white noise. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all the things you need to cook a meal. My grandkids (ages 5 and 8) enjoyed playing in the kids room and also outside on the swings. They even took a dip in the pool ( they’re mountain babies) we had the perfect trip and the property helped make it that way.
