9:07 AM We enjoyed a wonderful stay at The Shire. The house was great for our family of 4 adult couples and 4 little ones. We all had plenty of space, and loved the yard, playhouse and spa. It was a perfect mix of quiet open space with beautiful views, but a only 10 minutes from the cute downtown. There was a winery near by, but more within 20 minutes. We were cooking many meals at the house, including a Thanksgiving dinner complete with turkey. The kitchen was big enough for lots of helpers. We did run short on enough good knives. But I expect many visitors are not doing that kind of cooking, because there are so many places to eat near by. Having 2 washers and dryers was a huge plus with the size of our group. They were also very quick to respond to any questions we had. Everyone said they would love to come again.

The space is gorgeous, upscale, well maintained and extremely kids friendly. We love the downstair open space. The kitchen is extremely well equipped with all the things you could think of. They even have colorful rainbow plates/bows/cups that the kids absolutely love. We also spent a lot of time at the backyard, enjoying the view, firepit and the BBQ grill. The doll house is defiantly the spotlight of the trip. Kids spent so much time playing there. This is such a lovely house that we will for sure want to come back again.
