My wife, myself and our three kids (ages 11, 8 & 5) greatly enjoyed our two night stay! The home had everything we were looking for including a very nice, open kitchen that was well equipped with everything we needed. The location is great, in a nice quite neighborhood close to Jenkinson Lake. We are lookign forward to our next stay here!

Covered Hot Tub patio was nice. Beautiful yard with a fun tree stump table. Steps up from bedrooms into the living room was a bit taller than average but we got used to it quickly.

We liked having a living room where we could sit comfortably and talk. The circular setup of the living room was ideal and cozy. Three bedrooms are wonderful for a family get-together. It was awesome to have 2 bathrooms. We enjoyed the spaciousness of the house. Windows and light are great in the house.
