We had our family of 10 here for the weekend. The house has a lot of room for people to move around and hang out. It was really clean, we loved having the fire pit outside, and the game room was a real hit with the family! The only downside was the kitchen, while spacious with lots of counterop space, was set up very strange with subpar components. There was no salt & pepper, plastic wrap or baggies, and no plastic containers for leftovers. We would've loved to have had a platter or large stockpot to cook with. But I think this is a fairly new rental, so maybe there will be more to come?All said, we had an absolute blast this weekend, and I would recommend that if you're having a big group - just plan accordingly.
