The kitchen was very well stocked for 8 people. The beds were very comfortable. It was nice not to have to do several chores when leaving. From the description we thought it would be in a more private woods and not in a neighborhood. The bedroom for the children had an outside door so you better trust your children not to eacape in the night. The requirement of having to refill the propane tank kept us from using the grill.
