Perfect place for family gathering

Such a beautiful and comfortable place to stay. We rented to host my family during our wedding at Primo. Just a quick 10 minute drive and we enjoyed having the large space to unwind before and after the busy weekend. Highly recommend.

Great Place to Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All the information about the rental was spot-on. We found it to be spacious, nicely laid out, and user friendly. Loved the way the cabinets and drawers closed. Two full kitchens was a real plus. Quiet and secluded area; but not far from the places we wanted to visit. Would love to stay there, again, in the future. The property management people were super friendly and helpful. Excellent all the way.
