Great for visiting kids at Culver Academy

We had a great stay for Culver Academy Parents weekend! Plenty of room for 2 families with young kids plus teens that were also able to invite friends over from the Academy. There is plenty of room to gather downstairs yet separate area upstairs for kids to hang out. We enjoyed cooking and grilling out multiple meals. Everything we needed was stocked in the kitchen. There is a spacious yard for playing outside as well. The host was very responsive and accommodating for checking in and out. We will definitely book again for future Culver visits.
