The main living area includes a cozy great room with an electric fireplace, a dining area with seating for six, and a fully equipped L-shaped kitchen with quartz counters, high-end appliances, and a pass-through window to the pool deck.
The sleeping arrangements comfortably accommodate groups of up to 14: • Master Suite: on the main floor has a king bed, direct access to the pool area, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-like en-suite with a Roman shower and garden tub. • Queen Bedroom: has a queen bed and direct access to a Jack and Jill bathroom. • Bunk Room: has a twin over full bunk bed with a pull-out trundle and connects to the same Jack and Jill bathroom from the opposite side. • Office: The office can be used as a sleeping area using the daybed and trundle. • Upstairs Loft Suite: King bed and daybed with a trundle that has its own full bathroom, perfect for multigenerational stays or added privacy.
Additional spaces include a dedicated office with French doors, ideal for remote work, and a bonus loft for extra relaxation or game nights.
Step outside and enjoy your own slice of paradise. The screened-in outdoor area includes a heated saltwater sports pool (can be heated for $50/day), lounge space, and a custom-built outdoor kitchen with grill and bar seating. There’s also an outdoor bath entrance for easy access from the pool.
The main two-car garage has been converted into a fun-filled playroom featuring a ping pong table, foosball table, TV, and a bar table with stools. It's the perfect place for family tournaments or rainy-day fun.

Place was spotless and as advertised. Nice location. Pool was clean and refreshing. Kitchen had just enough of everything although not sure I’d want to cook a big meal there. (House supplies (garbage bags, dishwasher soap, TP - were very limited. You’ll need to get more if staying for more than a few days with a big group. Not a dealbreaker.)
