This was a great place for our family getaway! The place was large, very clean, and had plenty of room for everyone. It was nicely furnished, the kitchen was well stocked, and we had everything we needed. The hot tub was a nice bonus, and the location was ideal. We would definitely stay here again.

Wedding Week
The kitchen island was perfect for putting together floral centerpieces. The stocked kitchen & large refrigerator aided in us creating the perfect wedding cake. The upstairs layout worked amazingly well for the bridal party to get ready. The hot tub & backyard was perfect for relaxing. We appreciated the central location and easy access to the highway.

Great place, great outdoor space!
House was very comfortable. Great living area to enjoy cocktails in the evening visiting with family. Backyard space was wonderful to drink our coffee in the morning. We will stay here again when we are back in town.

Perfect little vacation
The house was great! Very roomy. I did not like that there were no TV in the bedrooms and the master bathroom shower was not the greatest. But other than that everything was perfect! Would definitely stay again and just maybe bring a laptop to watch while in bed lol

A wonderful unit in a sketchy area of town. Sleeps six adults easily. A seventh person can sleep on a futon in an open landing. That would be best for a child.
