House is pristine, property is beautiful. Neighbor is the builder of the house and was great in handling an issue we had early on. Kids enjoyed the games downstairs.

Excellent Choice!

The property was exactly as advertised. Honestly, it was better! Very clean, spacious, bright with lots of windows, and a quiet location at the top of a hill surrounded by woods. Super peaceful! Our family would love to go back there next year if it's available! Just be mindful, though, that the driveway is a relatively steep incline AND crushed stone, so without a truck or SUV w/ 4WD or similar, it might take a bit more effort to reach the top (my sister has a Toyota Sienna and did start spinning out a bit on her way up once. Our trucks were fine).
