Weekend retreat
The home was perfect for our weekend family retreat. We used every bed and every bathroom! If you do have the capacity maxed like we did bathroom sharing is a challenge but we all seemed to make it work. Our one request to the owner would be to add a nice sized mirror in each bedroom where guests may complete their dressing etc outside the coveted bathroom. 😉
The kitchen was spacious and had plenty of seating. It was a real gathering place. And the setting of the home amid the trees with lights strung along the drive and around the property is truly magical. We highly recommend this home.
