A comfortable modular sectional provides for comfortable longing or entertaining under the south facing covered patio with lounge chairs on the poolside patio. The sparkling saltwater pool is great for play or lounging and includes remotely operated fountains.

Nice home that has serious deferred maintenance issues.
The very best thing was the backyard and pool, although the pool was not heated when we arrived and had off and on issues for three weeks. House needs a lot of improvements and repairs. We did have a great time with our family in spite of some issues. You go, you will enjoy.

The perfect getaway
This home was everything we could have hoped for and more! We had 8 adults and 2 kids under 4 for this week long getaway. We just wanted a nice relaxing week away and this home was great. The outdoor area was perfect, plenty of outdoor seating, the grill was big and very clean, the views were really pretty and the POOL was everything! Then inside, the kitchen was stocked with plenty of plates, cups, appliances. There was also a table in the kitchen that fit everyone, great to eat together but also good for game nights. I reached out to Lynn with a quick questions, she responded right away and was very nice. Also a plus the area was great and very close to shopping and restaurants. We will 100% be staying here again, this home is a gem!!!!!
