Come home from a day of adventure to unwind on the deck and prepare a special dessert in the well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances. There are plentiful options for after-dinner fun, including a movie night in the living room or a game night in the rec room (complete with a mini pool table, an arcade game, a second smart TV, and a wet bar).
With central air conditioning running throughout the house, you'll sleep soundly in the four comfortable bedrooms. A private washer/dryer and complimentary WiFi are provided for your convenience as well.

Lovely home stay
This is a good size home with plenty of room. The beds were comfortable and bathroom was clean. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard but the wooden door would sometimes come open on it's own. Lots of friendly dogs in the area our dogs enjoyed talking to them. The home is in a cul d sac and located in a great location. We found a ton of stuff to do within 1 1/2 hour radius. Lots of restaurants and any other store you can think of. ilocated on a cul d sac
