We had a wonderful time. The house is wonderful and we were very comfortable. Our grandson and daughter came on Wed. They found all the games and had fun playing. We hope we can make it up here next summer. You have done a wonderful job fitting up the house. We appreciated having all the things we needed, so we didn't have to run out and buy it - thanks! Want to take the shower home! It was really great!

We all had a really great time here! No problems since the plumber came! We bought some large coffee mugs that we left for future caffine junkies to use. Had a very memorable stay. No issues. We really appreciate all your attention to our having a pleasant time here.
