Pick a seat, there's plenty of outdoor seating on the wrap around porch or down by the pond or maybe try the hot tub. Looking for peace and quiet? This is the house. We will definitely be back. It was easy to check in & out, the owner was super prompt to respond, & the house was clean. This house has everything you are looking for. ##### Alex E.
