Everything was amazing. The host was incredibly responsive and check in/check out was a breeze. The pool and hot tub we're such a hit. It's the perfect place for a family get together. So many amenities, supplies, etc. They have truly thought of everything. We hope to be back in the future for another family trip.
This house was very nice. The pool area was the biggest hit for the family. Love the size of pool, the easy in and easy out in the shallow end. There are plenty pool toys and towels supplied. Hot tub was very relaxing. Kitchen and bathrooms have plenty of supplies.
Check in was easy as we just inputted the code to the front door and walked in! Kitchen was awesome! We used the fridge speaker quite a bit. Pool, hot tub, bedrooms, bathrooms and common spaces were all clean and tidy. The living and dining room were spacious for myself and six groomsmen to game on the tv and table. We did have some issues with the tv disconnecting and reconnecting at times. A great place to stay!
We had a great time with our family and got lots of use out of the pool and we also brought our bikes and went to the nearby park. The neighborhood is gorgeous! The only disappointment about our stay was that there was no hot water in the house, so we were unable to bathe us or our children. Not a horrible deal for us for two nights, but it would have been nice to know beforehand.
Love having a unique home that I get to share with others. I try to provide everything you'll need except for clothes, food and drink to make your stay as calm and relaxing as possible!
Why they chose this property
