Best family vacation house!

We stayed here over New Year’s Eve as a last minute trip and it was incredible! The kids had so much fun playing in the pool, and it was close enough to the city that we went downtown for a day too!

Perfect location for families of friends to gather and enjoy time together! Beautiful piece of property surrounded by nature. The house itself is spacious with lots of space to gather and spend time together. The indoor pool is unique and one-of-a-kind; sure to create some lasting memories!

Extended family retreat

Love this location and facilities…perfect for large groups and many options for everyone!! The first time we seen the grounds, we knew it was a good choice. Once we walked in the house and saw the space and accommodations, we were in love. This is one spot we would choose to come back again, for sure.

Great communication with host prior to arrival and during stay. Pool area is amazing. Lots of space for 3 families to spread out, but also great areas to all be together. Nice touch with Christmas tree as we were there over the holidays. The pool was amazing for the kids. Imagine in the summer with all the numerous patio doors open, it would be just as nice if not nicer!A few feedback items: no working coffeemaker in the house despite the wonderful pictures of the coffee station. Even tried the huge BUNN coffee server but there was no spout. There was a french press so we made due. We could not find a single mixing bowl either. Plenty of towels in the laundry for any extras you would need. Overall, this was a great house to host several families for Christmas and we would return. thanks!

Beautiful home, secluded property. It’s all good here. Abundantly supplied, clean, easily booked, and great communication. Every attention to detail has been given to this home. Picturesque setting, lots of windows, many deck spaces, and wildlife all around. A great time of respite can be found here. Highly recommend.

The property is beautiful. Spacious enough for a family to enjoy together time but have your own space when needed. The pool and pool area is a great bonus feature. Unfortunately, the A/C was having problems as well as the pool heater. Both the property manager and owner of the property were on top of the issue, lots of communication from the two to our party. Unfortunately, it did take away from the "relaxation" part of the weekend - you want to escape normal home maintenance issues, not deal with them.

Beautiful home but the property is where it is at. Absolutely gorgeous. We really appreciate the extra towels and comfy beds. Kids had a blast in the bunk room with some AM cartoons while the adults shook over hangovers. Pool super cool. Only drawback is there were some lights we did not know how to turn on. Didn't ask though, property manager was great keeping us informed and answering questions. thinking about coming back next year!

1. The 2 4 step stairs off the kitchen need handrails.2. The hall bath upstairs-bad lighting issues and sink drain did not work3. Deck had rotting boards.4. The upstairs was hot and the downstairs was cold5. Kitchen supplies minimal- example 4 dishwashing tablets and minimal containers for leftovers. There were 15 of us.6. The outlets in upstairs teal bedroom did not work well.7. The grass was quite long. 8. The space was great and so was the pool.

Great place for a weekend away with 4-5 couples

We had a great time, overall this property was perfect for a friends weekend with kids. The setting was secluded and beautiful. The house was very clean, pool was clean and well maintained. Kitchen was well supplied except paper towels and the coffee maker didn’t work. Thankfully we found one French press to save the day. Also there was no gas for the gas grill, but since the kitchen was nicely supplied we could shift gears to cooking indoors. Kids from toddler age up through high school were all happy and occupied with the pool, multiple hang out spots with screens, and outside space. Highly recommend!

Fun for everyone at a great location

The property is huge and beautiful, we got turned around in the house alone a couple times and it became a fun game for us all. The kids and men loved the pond fishing, all 16 of us enjoyed front yard games and pool time and there was plenty of room for cooking and eating throughout the kitchen and dining. Ping pong was also fun for the whole group. Everything was clean and organized, zero complaints. Nicely stocked supply of paper products for our use too which was super appreciated. We had one issue during our stay that didn’t really affect us as much as the home itself. We reached out around 11pm and the hosts were quick to respond and get service to the home the following morning. Very easy communication. Our large extended family would definitely book again. Thank you for the wonderful stay!
