Fantastic 4th Weekend Home

We had a fantastic stay over the 4th of July weekend with three families sharing the home. The house was spacious and thoughtfully stocked with essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, and plenty of bath towels—which was so appreciated with a large group!The layout is perfect for multiple families, offering both privacy and great communal spaces. The bunk rooms on the lower level were a huge hit with the kids, giving them their own space to hang out and sleep.Our friends visiting from Texas and California fell in love with the charm of Apple Canyon Lake. The Texans especially loved relaxing in the 3-seasons room—it was a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening chats.We’d absolutely recommend this home and would not hesitate to book again!
