Room for Everyone
Located in a quiet neighborhood, convenient to shopping. Unusual floor plan on 3 levels. Ample accommodations for 7 adults, 3 kids, and could have handled more. Lots of bonuses: hot tub, ping pong table, washer/dryer, well-appointed kitchen, children's playroom. Host was helpful and easy to contact.

50th wedding anniversary
it was great. We had twelve people range in age 3-71 from three different families. Plus lots of other family over everyday.
House was plenty big with more than enough sleeping space and lots of toys, ping pong table and electronics for teens.
Beautiful deck, Owner was great! She had bear spray and off ready if needed and brought us tables and chairs for the reception at the house.
House was well equipped with everything needed.
Thank you to Shirely
