We had a small family gathering for dad’s 90th birthday. It was the perfect setting for a quiet family gathering. Pool was awesome and very kid friendly! We all had a wonderful time and are hoping to go again annually 😊
We came for the Leesburg Bikefest. We however spent most of our time in this beautiful house! Highly recommend this house has everything!
