Beautiful property!!! We had a wonderful time staying here. The house is perfect, especially for a larger crowd. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard! The heated, indoor pool was great to have for the chilly nights. The beds were very comfortable! We will definitely look to stay here again next time we're in the area.
