About this property

Stunning on South Golf Course; Golden Tee, Patio TV, Fire Pit, Hot Tub & More!!

At the end of a tucked away cul-de-sac through a winding driveway with towering trees on either side you'll reach our beautiful home on the Eagle Ridge South Course!

As you open the front door, you'll be amazed by the spaciousness and be drawn across the living room to a row of French doors, leading to a sprawling deck with an incredible view of rolling hills of the Eagle Ridge South golf course.

Star gaze while soaking in the Hot Tub or have fun in the 1000+ Sq Ft Basement with pool table, foosball, poker table, mini golf, and gaming systems!

If you came for the fresh air there is no better place than these decks to enjoy dinner and drinks or gather 'round to watch the game on the outdoor TV or catch up around the gas powered firepit.

There is something for everyone at Birdie's Clubhouse!

We had a fantastic stay at this home. Everything was spotless upon arrival, and the property was fully stocked with amenities that kept everyone comfortable and entertained throughout our visit. The kitchen was a standout—well-equipped and perfect for cooking meals together—and we especially loved having access to the outdoor grills.The host was also incredibly thoughtful and responsive. We accidentally left a few items behind, and they went above and beyond to help ship them back to us quickly, which we truly appreciated.Overall, a wonderful experience from start to finish. We’d absolutely stay here again!

The home is clean, warm and welcoming. Fully equipped kitchen and other amenities. Perfect for our family and friends to enjoy playing games and cards. More bathrooms than bedrooms was also appreciated. Our guests had high compliments on the comfort factor of the beds. Most importantly we are filled with gratitude the owners allowed our dog. Fantastic property!
