The host had everything you can think of, TVs in every room, two living rooms, game room, fire pit with lots of wood available, hot tub outside was heated and ready for us. Enough dishes for our large group. House was safe for young kids, my 15 months old walked all around the house. Older kids enjoyed the abundant collection of board games. The pool table is kind of squeeze in, not enough room to play ur best, but we still enjoyed. There was a grill outside, and outdoor table and chairs to eat outside. The location was good, short drive to many attractions. I can keep talking about all amenities, host thought about everything, there was a first aid kid, we didn’t have to worry about bath tissue, hand soap, dish washer soap, liquid soap, laundry detergent, extra batteries, towels, pillow covers, let’s not forget the espresso and coffee machines, stocked. Many places that we stayed at, we always had to go to the store to get things, here we felt at home. Would love to come back again in the future, and I would recommend this place to all my friends and family. Host was responsive and easy to communicate through VRBO. ##### Arif I.

It was easily accessible and the view is absolutely gorgeous (a large field with cows as well as trees and mountains in the back). The spaces are very comfortable for our group of 10 (like a large dining room and fire pit). It was really nice that it has 2 living rooms, which we were able to use at the same time (kids will stay in one and adults in the other), and a cute, well supplied coffee station with a delicious Nespresso and Kurig machine. The kitchen was well stocked too. All the bedrooms were very comfortable, and the kids enjoyed sharing a room with 2 bunk beds. Bathrooms had all needed supplies and towels. One thing though, the murphy beds are in one of the living rooms, and unfortunately we didn't feel comfortable using this room as a bedroom. The game room was nice, although it needs a little ventilation. They also provided some board games that the kids enjoyed. Overall the spaces were tastefully decorated, with nice details all over (including a fresh cut flower when we arrived). We fell in love with the reclaimed wood wall as well as the beautiful olive trees. We encountered a few issues that we immediately communicated with the host, Jonathan. He was quick to reply and find solutions. He was very helpful. Overall, we would recommend this property and will certainly stay here again. ##### Lara H.

Jonathan was also so great about responding quickly! He was super accommodating and I will definitely stay here again when we come back! ##### Katie H.

We’ve stayed here twice now for back to back weekends and had an excellent experience both times. The house is beautiful and we loved the view, hot tub, game room, and how many it sleeps. The host is super responsive and helpful and check in and check out went very smoothly. If you’re coming in the winter and there’s snow in the forecast, I do recommend having AWD or winter tires for the steep driveway. ##### Chloe V.

Weather was meh but the home was warm and welcoming! The owner was very responsive to the one issue we had and helped us resolve it the next day. Plenty of space for all of us to gather, laugh and create memories! Thank you for hosting us! We hope to be back! ##### Stacey S. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandi C.

It has an absolutely perfect layout for adults, teens and children; it’s very spacious and allows plenty of room and privacy for all. The game room was a huge hit for our family. The location of the fire pit has a breathtaking view. There is a lot of counter space for cooking! Everting we needed was provided and our property manager is outstanding! I can’t wait to go back. I wish we could have stayed longer! ##### Sandi C.
