The house is on beautiful property, there are chickens, roosters. The owners have it well stocked in the kitchen, everything you could need. The piano, LR, DR are all great. The bathrooms are adequate but small, the beds were comfortable. The pool is great!

My group of 7 had such a comfortable stay at this huge, charming, beautifully furnished farmhouse. Lorena was a fantastic host: we had total privacy on the property, but she was quickly available via messages, responding whenever I had questions. We enjoyed the pool, huge yard, chicken coop (fresh eggs!), and roomy kitchen, where the whole family could gather. Would love to come back and stay here with a big group again.
