Great location for playing the golf courses there. House is beautifully decorated. We had 3 children under 5, we brought our own baby gates. All appliances are new and work perfect. Every room had a large TV. All bed were comfortable and all have ceiling fans. I would definetely stay there again,Only thing I would suggest is to get blackout shades in bedrooms. .
