November 2022

We stayed at the home for Thanksgiving break. My family, sisters family, and my mother. It was truly a wonderful home to stay in with a crowd. The home has lots of lovely rooms to spread out in and separate areas for the kids to play, TV sports games to watch, and large meals to be shared. Only issues for us was that the first floor front room doors would not close to use as a guest room as described) has a pull out sofa). And the cable took some setting up by some of the guys to work. Other than that we’d definitely be back. Recommend for sure!! A beautiful, comfortable home indeed. We just hope it’s available again when we’d like to return.
