From the minute you step onto property, you sense that you found an absolute gem. I had 12 friends and family stay for the Formula 1 race, and all everyone could talk about was the house. Beautiful and incredibly spacious. This stay was a pleasurable experience all the way around.
The host was very responsive, incredibly attentive and gracious! The location and home is beautiful and easy access to anywhere you may want to go. We had a wonderful time and am sure others will as well.
The house was very nice and exactly what our team needed.. The Homeowner went out of their way to ensure we had a great stay. They even went out to purchase large backyard games for us to play.. When there was an issue Wendy answered her phone right away and solved the problem immediately.. Definitely will see if this hose is free when we come back next year for another softball tournament..
