Wedding weekend

The house reminded of my great grandparents farm house and a beach- a perfect mix of both! We had plenty of space for 7 adults. We enjoyed the pool and hanging out playing games. It was a great time and we’ve already talked about going back.

50th Birthday Celebration

We all loved our stay at the Hayes House! The house itself was beautiful, very spacious and had a historical charm to it. The pool and outdoor tiki bar/yard areas were perfect for our large party and enjoyed by all. Geana and Troy were great hosts and very accommodating to all of our requests! Two thumbs up and wishing them a bright future, hoping to stay again sometime soon.
