The fully stocked kitchen made it easy to cook less for our family. This clean and spacious home made it easy for us to hand out And talk, play games and relax by it having two separate loving spaces. We never got to use the fire pit or jacuzzi due to our other scheduled plans however we do plan to make this an annual trip For our family. Another sweet and helpful tool was the welcome book with all the local recommendations. ##### Falicia M. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ermioni M.

Morning coffee on the back deck watching the turkey and her chicks walk across the huge back yard. The views on the way to the house were amazing. The wifi at times was spotty but we were able to watch the Celtics win the championship! Remember to bring what you need as the grocery store isn't a quick drive. Will definitely come back for the next lacrosse tournament. ##### Ermioni M. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marsha B.
