We had a great time and loved this property. It was absolutely perfect for our small family reunion!

We loved the location, awesome views from deck and hot tub. It was perfect for us and our two adult children, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Lots to enjoy in the area and we would be fortunate to rent this house again!
