About the host

Hosted by Property Manager Renee

Host profile image
Myself and my husband, Patrick, have been managing this awesome vacation rental property since 2014. We absolutely love this Property and the neighborhood. We have worked very hard to maintain as well as improve it over the years.
We are completely honored to host groups as large as 19 total overnight guests.

Why they chose this property

We have tried to make this home welcoming and accommodating to family groups with members of all ages and smaller adult group gatherings. The private fenced in large outdoor in-ground pool and hot tub, large outdoor pool deck and fenced in grassy play areas provide plenty of outdoor space for entertainment from mid-May through mid-September.
The large Recreation Room provides plenty of space and games for our guests to entertain themselves. Our large private outdoor in-ground 8'x8' hot tub is kept open all year long except for the months of Jan and Feb.
We welcome guests to the area to enjoy all that it has to offer in terms of local attractions but are happy when guests just hang out and enjoy all that the Property has to offer while hopefully creating memories that will last a lifetime!!!

What makes this property unique

The private seasonally (mid May - mid Sep) operated 20' x 40' in-ground heated pool, 8' x 8' in-ground year round hot tub (except for months of Jan & Feb), spacious outdoor sundeck area, outdoor fenced in play area, comfortable home and Recreation/Game Room make this home truly unique!
