Jul 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for Holiday World This house worked out great for our family, 12 of us. The house was an easy 5 minute drive (or less) to Holiday World. The setting is beautiful and one evening we had a great round of frisbee in the front yard. The kitchen had all we needed, but we did very little cooking. There is a very nice washer/dryer as well. I highly recommend this property! All communication (mostly texts) with Amy was friendly and informative. ##### Rita M.
