"6 adults, 2 kids, we spent most of our time outdoors as we all loved the space, privacy, landscaping, several seating options. The house is also lovely and spacious. Only negative comment is that in all that indoor space there were only 2 functioning TV’s. We would highly recommend this property, we were all sad to leave that great yard!!!"
