"I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW WONDERFUL THIS HOME WAS AND THE OWNER, WAYNE, WAS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH. This home was incredible in the way that it was decorated and cared for. The property was stunning and the bedrooms spacious. We stayed her for my daughter and son-in-law's wedding. Our entire extended family was able to stay in one place and enjoy each other's company while staying in a peaceful home that accommodated us all. The most incredible part of our stay, however, was the photo opportunities for my daughter as she and her husband saw each other for the first time near the beautiful hydrangea bush in the back. We all looked on from the incredible sunroom and got to give them their privacy while we all witnessed their happiness of a day that went off without a hitch. I cannot thank you enough Wayne and I am so sorry that this was much later of a review than I had planned. My son is getting married next year and I only wish it was in the same area as I would have booked again in a heartbeat!!!"
