Thank you so much Lisandra! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful views and all the entertainment the home has to offer. We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and would love to welcome you back again!
I can’t say enough about this house! Everything was as described. The views, the space, the location were all absolutely amazing. I would book this property over and over again. We had 4 adults and 6 kids and this house was everything and more that we needed.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Mindy! We’re thrilled to hear that the home exceeded your expectations and that the views, space, and location all made such a great impression. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we would love to welcome you back anytime!
We had such a wonderful time at this rental. There was so much to do in the area, so much to do in the house and they provided wonderful amenities.We traveled with a group of family members ranging in ages, everyone stayed busy in the house.One thing we really appreciated about this rental was the comfortable beds. Often times the beds at rentals can be uncomfortable, the pillows and beds were extremely comfortable.The host was very easy to deal with and reached out multiple times to make sure we were comfortable.The view from the deck was absolutely stunning and we cannot wait to come back again.

5 Stars is not enough stars to describe this house experience. We were 3 generations and there were activities for all of us. The description online doesn't capture how extensive, beautiful and well thought out this house really is. Here's a list of some things that stick in my mind: extremely clean, modern, great bright white linens, beautifully decorated, large movie space, all games and activities in excellent working condition, modern office space with large monitor, fast reliable internet, large al fresco dining space. We will be going back to this home.
