Great stay overall! It rained 3/4 days we stayed and we had the best time! When the weather did clear up we took advantage of the neighborhood amenities and our kids (14,9,8) had a blast as well as the adults. The house itself was perfect! Clean, functional and open. All the beds were SO comfortable and the tvs had everything we were looking for.

We had a great stay at the Family Retreat! There was plenty of room, we were in the middle of the sights we wanted to see, it was great to have a fenced in yard for the dog and everyone enjoyed the fun game room basement! I had a few questions and the owner was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay.

What an amazing property and stay. Ample space, kid and dog friendly. Comfortable beds! Kitchen had plenty of items for a large family to enjoy a wonderful vacation! I must note, though we didn’t need due to the house being warm and cozy, they had extra blankets and pillows. Even the trash attendant was sweet and friendly! Property was clean and beyond welcoming! Not once did I feel like it was a vacation rental that was just a means of revenue due to it having a home like feel! The host was friendly and kind and would absolutely recommend this rental to friends and family!

This home is very clean and tastefully decorated.
