Totally amazing, house is even better than pics, beautiful scenery. We were there celebrating Thanksgiving. There were 21 of us. The kids had a fantastic time and spent all day, every day outdoors. There really is 2 of everything which worked great for Thanksgiving for my large family. Each family had their own bedroom and bathroom. Carol was a fantastic host and could not have been more welcoming. Highly recommend and would definitely book again.
