We came up for a bachelor/bachelorette trip with 14 guests. On the positive side, the home was huge, property was beautiful and had plenty of space for all of our guests and truly, the host Julie was amazing for all of our questions and concerns…Unfortunately, our entire gang got extremely sick because of the amount of mold in the home, two of our guests were 1 minute away from heading to an urgent care. If you have any allergies, elderly people, young children or anyone in your party is immune compromised, I would not recommend this place just due to the health hazard.
