The game room was a huge hit! Each area of the home is well thought out with function, purpose and care. The porch rocking chairs, the patio, the swing out back and expansive landscape are a few outdoor spots we enjoyed. We have No complaints; the only sad part was realizing how quickly the time went by and the desire to have stayed longer. ##### Diane L. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria G.
