The house was beautiful inside and outside and it was decorated beautifully for Christmas. It had plenty of space for my family, we loved each room and was happy to have multiple bathrooms. The family areas were nice and the kids loved the basement with the ping pong table and games. There was plenty of space for the kids to run wild. Shaina was a wonderful hostess, she answered all my questions and was very polite. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with my family for the holidays.
