This property is spacious, comfortable and ideally set for a large family or small youth group. Plenty of bathrooms, kitchens and living space to host a large group.
Our stay at the property was great! There was adequate space for everyone to be comfortable. We were traveling with children and there were rooms setup for children which included some toys. The house was decorated beautifully which gave it a very welcoming and pleasant vibe. I would stay at this location again!!
We brought a church group of teens up to visit the Ark and Creation museum. The location was amazing. The three apartments were just what we needed for the trip. Everything was well equipped, we only had to re-distribute a few towels as one apartment had two towels and the other had way more than needed. Our only complaint was sound proofing/ insulation- anything that happens upstairs is so loud downstairs. However, we were also traveling with teens so them giggling and talking late at night is expected. Great place- would definitely visit again!!! Thank you!
