Beautiful property, nice amenities to keep everything busy like the foos ball and fire pit. Very cute home with plenty of room. Was very clean. I recommend they add a fly swatter, they repair the bathroom tile and replace the front door lock that kept beeping and malfunctioning. It was a great stay for our family for attending a wedding. I highly recommend.

Property was clean and comfortable. Only one surprise in that the website indicated there was also a shower in the half bath which made a total of 3 showers in the house. Turns out there are only 2 showers in the house. We managed but was expecting access to 3 showers. Otherwise, all good. Felt safe in the neighborhood.

Great place for a family, clean and a lot of space. Few little quarks-- like thought we did something wrong with the door code but it was just really sticky and had to push really hard to open it. In the upstairs bathroom had to leave the water run forever to get hot...but that wasn't the issue...most building codes have left as hot this was the opposite. So no problem once figured that out. Not real keen on the outside cameras watching you but get owners want to keep it safe. Nitpicking but overall excellent stay.

Winterfest 2025

The house was clean and well kept. One of the kids kept saying he wanted to live there. If I could complain about anything, it could only be about the bed we chose to sleep in. That being said, we are a little spoiled and love our bed at home. It was just a little soft for our taste. No other complaints about sleeping from anyone else. We would come back if needed and available.

Family gathering

Inside was nicely decorated. One chair in the living room was sagging when you sat in it. The outside wasn't as nice. Grass needed cut and the weeds needed pulling. There were lots of maggots in the outside garbage can. Grass did get cut while we were there, but not the weeding. This house was not as nice as others we have stayed in.
