Absolutely welcoming! House was clean. Even had some extras we didn't expect. Seasonings, utensils, pans, real dishes, drinks, popcorn. We had space to gather together as a family. We could play (Foosball, darts, x box). Also perk of multiple tvs to not be together . Big back yard. We unfortunately came to do clean up work for grandparents passing. We would love to come back and stay again!!
