Oct 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Property was very clean. Host was readily available upon contacting. The upkeep of house was amazing. Nothing was broken or missing. It felt like a brand new home. We had plenty to entertain us. We also had plenty of room to spread out if we wanted quiet time. We crafted many great meals in the nicely stocked kitchen. Perfect home for us. ##### Tracy G. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela A. Oct 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy A quick family getaway meant to be with another family but they cancelled last minute. Ended up just being our family of 5 with 3 boys and had a blast. So much to do from the games in the game room, comfy movie setup, pool table, hot tub, kayak and paddle boat plus an abundance of beds. Well stocked with supplies, fun decor. Our only regret was not having longer to stay there. Would love to stay there again with more family or friends. ##### Angela A. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025
