This house was really beautiful and cozy. Great for families. Clean and well stocked. The single issue we had was the lack of WiFi so no TV on Thanksgiving day which was an issue for some of us but not everyone. The yard is huge and great for kids to runaround and play. Would highly recommend.
I especially enjoyed the serenity of this once family home. It had all the accommodation necessary for our family. Clean as a whistle. I’d definitely rent again. The only downside is there is no dishwasher. Which I didn’t realize until I got in there. I spent two days washing dishes by hand. Otherwise a perfect setting
Refrigerator made loud noise; no ice in ice maker; poor lighting for reading in bedrooms; no place to hang towels or bathrobe; bathrooms were cramped for a home that sleeps six; no instructions for operating smart tv. Beds were very comfortable. Home is tastefully decorated. Kitchen supplies are great. Check out process was easy.
We were hosting a rehearsal dinner in the area and spending the weekend for our son’s wedding. The house was perfect location to stay for these events! Everything we needed was provided and everyone had their own space. Sitting on the back patio was so relaxing! The house is well maintained and beautifully decorated.
