This a great place for families to gather. It's very spacious and clean and comfortable. And though it's in a quiet and peaceful area with a small lake at the base of the property, places to eat and get groceries are just a short drive away. There's a wonderful seating area around a firepit, too!
Excellent communication, fast responses, very accommodating. The layout is fantastic with lots of open space, comfortable bedrooms, and excellent amenities. The backyard is absolutely huge, probably 3 acres or so. Would stay again for sure.
