Really lovely house, my group enjoyed! Much more space than expected. That said, one of the doors to the patio was ripped through when we arrived, and lawn chairs were strewn about. Hot tub was amazing, but no path was cleared to get to the tub through weeks old ice, and a friend cut his foot going from the tub to the house. Not a huge deal, but made us wonder whether cleaning/repairs were keeping current.
