This place is Awesome! Clearly a well taken care of property absent of cheap furnishings. Amenities exist, are clean, work, and are well stocked. Rooms are great with good quality bedding and plenty of towels. Nice neighborhood quiet/low traffic. Private. Kitchen is clean and has nice amenities. Great fridge, induction stove, double oven, new dishwasher. Worth the price.

This place packed in a lot of awesome things for our family with 5 adults and five kids age is 2 to 9. The pool, the hot tub, the sauna, volleyball area. outdoor gazebo, kids outdoor playhouse, kids playroom in the house - all made this so perfect. Inside, lots of bedrooms for all the different sleep configurations with children and adults and 3 full baths which was much appreciated. Not a fancy house but a very comfortable house, which made it ideal for us with the kids. Very responsive support when we needed it. We stayed for 10 days and so the pool needed to be cleaned in that timeframe and we needed some extra supplies and all were accommodated nicely. Highly recommend this home especially when it’s warm enough to enjoy the pool.
