We had a great stay over the Fourth of July weekend while visiting family. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the pool, which was definitely the highlight of the property.There are a few things that could make the outdoor space even better. The backyard could use a little more upkeep, as the grass was fairly overgrown during our visit. We also noticed an old Band-Aid by the pool that had been missed during cleanup. The hot tub was not working, and adding a grill would be a nice amenity for guests who enjoy cooking outdoors.Overall, we had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed our time at the house. We’d recommend it to others looking for a comfortable place to stay.

The hot tub did not work. The pool was cloudy the whole time. It’s not all shiny and pretty like the photos. Windows were very dirty. The kitchen is equipped with SOME things like dirty silverware and old condiments. No measuring cups or bowls. We couldn’t make pancakes until we went to purchase bowls and measuring cups. Only 1 remote control worked for all the tvs. We had to go from room to room in the evenings to get everyone on the program they wanted to watch. We heard sirens all day and night not to mention the train. Other than that, we made the best of it and enjoyed our grandchildren anyway. I hope it gets better.
