five stars!

The property was everything our group needed to enjoy a long weekend and celebrate a 30th birthday. The rooms were separated enough to give people space, yet areas large enough to accommodate everyone at the same time if needed. The property inside and out is beautiful.

Very comfortable stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay. The host communicated promptly and checked in on us, multiple times to see if we needed anything. The bedrooms were very comfortable, with plenty of pillows and blankets. Oh, and the soft throws were to die for! You could tell the host went to extra effort to make guests comfortable. Five stars!

The property is beautiful and well kept. Kate was lovely to communicate with throughout the stay. The rooms were nicely decorated and each room had the additional beds and bedding needed. The pool was great for the kids. There were pool noodles and life vests which weren't mentioned in the listing but came in essential for us so we're very thankful for that since the pool is a bit deep. The game room in the basement was an awesome surprise as well. We will gladly look to book this house again.

Great large house

We stayed at this house with 15 adults and a baby and it was perfect. Plenty of rooms, a grill, indoor pool, gym, hot tub, all working great. Easy check-in and check-out process. Not tons of annoying rules and fine print which was very much appreciated. Overall a simple rental process, and a fun house for a large group.

Great experience with family and friends!!

This place is just amazing both indoor and outdoor. The indoor pool and sauna is a big hit for both adults and kids and it's in great condition. The outdoor grill, gazebo and hot tub is another plus. The kitchen is in great condition and everything works perfectly fine. The mini bar and dinning area is perfect to accommodate large groups. Our kids had a great spring break vacation. We all just loved this place.

We had such an incredible and magical time—honestly, it feels like a place we may never experience again. Staying here felt like living in a fairytale, and in the best way possible, it was wonderfully overwhelming because there was so much to enjoy.The property was absolutely beautiful, and you could truly tell how much care, thought, and love the host put into every room and every detail throughout the house. The indoor pool, especially, was stunning and truly unforgettable—it made the experience even more special.This home is extremely family-friendly and impressively spacious. We traveled with kids, and while the house was so large that calling them from room to room was sometimes a challenge, it actually turned into a blessing. It gave the adults rare and much-appreciated moments of quiet and relaxation.Kate was an amazing host. She was incredibly responsive—whenever we had a question, she replied right away—and she guided us so thoughtfully that the entire trip felt smooth, easy, and stress-free. Finding a place like this again would be very difficult, which made the experience feel even more like a dream. Everyone felt comfortable, relaxed, and truly happy throughout our stay.If there was one regret, it was that our 3-night, 4-day stay felt far too short compared to how special this place was. We only wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy it just a little more.

New Years Getaway

This place is large, with plenty of room to spread out with our group. It was a beautiful snowy weekend, so we spent alot of time between the hot tub, sauna and the indoor pool. The pool pump didn't seem to work for us the 2nd day to wet the slide, but since it was a short stay we didn't bother to contact owner about it. Parking was not an issue for 6 cars. Kitchen had great bar seating and wonderful appliances! The outdoor patio area looked amazing but we due to weather, we didn't get to enjoy it. Highly reccommend for families with kiddos, the pool was a huge seller for us!!

Ropp Family Vacation

We had a wonderful stay. We had four generations together for a family reunion. The indoor pool was a huge hit with the kids, while the adults enjoyed the outdoor gas fire-pit and patio area. We made s'mores one night and watched movies under the stars two nights. We had plenty of space for all 12 adults and 4 children. In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we plan to reserve the house again next year. There were a couple of items that could be addressed, however. The mattress in the Egyptian room is either damaged or broken. The mattress sagged fairly severely on one side--my wife was sleeping about a foot lower than me. My nephew also said his mattress was very firm--he and his wife were in one of the two upstairs bedrooms. A simple fix for this might be a mattress pad on top of the mattress. The only other thing I can think of (and this is really being picky) is that there were a few bulbs out throughout the house. The most important one of these, however, was in the sauna. Fortunately, we used the sauna during the day, so we had light through the glass door. It would have been a bit more challenging had we used the sauna at night with no light working. We were disappointed to learn of the broken diving board and taking the slide out of service prior to our arrival, but we understood and took it in stride. We still had a lot of fun in the pool. As I said, we had a wonderful time and have already started planning our next trip!
