4.89out of 5 from 61 guest reviews
We stayed here with 2 other families and had plenty of space! 5 adults and 8 kids under 5yo. It was lovely! The pool was a HUGE hit and very fun. Plus the kids loved being able to walk around the property!
Perfect family gathering spot for Thanksgiving. 2 ovens and 2 dishwashers came in handy and the kids loved swimming in the pool.
Beautiful property!! We had a wonderful time. Big enough for most of our group to have their own bed/room. Plenty of room both inside and out to spread out. The couple of questions I had, they were very responsive and answered all questions. You won’t be disappointed- very cool setup with lots of memories to be made!
