Plenty of room for our family of 7, ranging in ages from 7 to 81. The yard and fire pit were a real joy to use, and we even got reacquainted with the game of basketball with a great backyard court available to us. So much convenience very close by - markets, restaurants, even Costco. Our hot was awesome with communication from start to finish, and we definitely would use this property again!

We stayed here with a group of teens from our church's youth group to go to nearby Perfect North Slopes. The home is absolutely beautiful and welcoming. It was great having all the bedrooms upstairs. There were plenty of beds and linens to accommodate our large group. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. The little things like sound machines and foam earplugs were a nice touch.The home was furnished with plenty of seating and dining space. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing meals. The host was responsive, hospitable, and very accommodating! Our students thoroughly enjoyed their stay, which is saying something if you spend much time with teens. Thank you, Joshua!

About the host

Hosted by Josh & Terra

Host profile image
We're Josh and Terra. Family of six. We love creating spaces where large families can create memorable experiences together.

Why they chose this property

This was our personal home for many years. We lovingly restored it as we raised our 4 young children. They loved to play in the backyard, imaginations running wild. We knew it would be the perfect spot for other families who wanted a place to stay where the kiddos could play outside while still being close to many nearby attractions.

What makes this property unique

The inside is carefully crafted with all the little touches you don't normally see in a vacation rental. You instantly feel cozy. Meanwhile the outside is loaded with fun things to do all within a fenced-in space. Playgrounds, basketball fire pit, deck, paved walking track, children's playhouse. Every convenience you need from grocery to entertainment to dining is all just minutes away.
