We stayed here as a group of 5 couples. It was perfect for our group. I will say I wish I would have known before we booked that you can only park 4 cars there. We did car pool but that would’ve been nice to know. We had 3 trucks and we would not have been able to have a 4th. It is a very unique little place and quiet. Beds are not your own, but typically never are. The communication was quick and efficient.

We were in town for a wedding and had multiple families staying on the property. Kids young and old enjoyed the game room, and everybody enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The owner really put a lot of effort into the theme rooms and no detail was spared!

House was really fun for a group of 3 families. It was not super clean- there was a half eaten cucumber left on one of the beds and the mini coffee pot had moldy grounds in it. One of the bedrooms required you to pass through another bedroom to get to it- this worked fine for our family but would be good to know up front. Would stay here again for the amenities- the kids had a great time and appreciated all of the toys!
