We had a great stay in Vilas. The house is very comfortable and was perfect for our extended family group and two grandchildren. The views off the deck are beautiful and the location is very peaceful. It is in a gated community but you don't see other houses once you are in the house. Everything was in working order, the kitchen is well equipped. The hosts were easy to communicate with and helpful in answering my questions. It's a great house and I am sure you will enjoy your stay. They have thought of everything you might need.
