This home was such a fantastic find!! It’s far more beautiful than the pictures can even convey! We were two families of 4 and this home made the perfect place to share for the weekend. Kitchen was excellent for cooking, there were toys for the kids and a bathroom for each family worked so well for us. We enjoyed the walk down to the lake (just don’t forget your bug spray) and had a spectacular day at the near by beach. We would be thrilled to return again in the future. The hosts are also exceptional. Very responsive and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
We absolutely loved our stay at Orange Grove. The property and outlook were amazing. It was the perfect layout for our 2 families. Hope we can stay again one day

Fantastic weekend away!
Had a great weekend away with 6 adults and 2x kids. Plenty of space to spread out, bedroom configuration was perfect and the house was well equipped with everything you could need. Highly recommend!
The house was absolutely beautiful, open plan, spacious and eco friendly.
Kate was so lovely. Easy to contact and made the process of booking so easy.
