Our family of 15--9 adults, 6 kids (ages 2-10)--had a spectacular week at what we dubbed "the mansion." Every detail was attended to. The house was clean with many nooks & crannies and options for sleeping arrangements. The oversized, open-concept kitchen kept everyone engaged and happily preparing meals together. (We def needed the two full-sized refrigerators!) The entire fam fit around the dining room table--although, in a few years, the littles might be too big to squish together on the bench! But outdoor tables and seating areas, including the BBQ area, were ample for the whole crew at breakfast and some dinners. And I can't omit the pleasure of coffee on the balcony off the primary bedroom as the sun came up. Communication with our hosts was excellent. (Thanks for the welcome gift!) And last, but def not least: The Pool. We chose this VRBO location specifically for the GATED pool area and felt totally secure all week w the safety of our young ones. We never went on any of the day excursions we'd considered, preferring instead to lounge, frolic, and swim together. Totally glorious! There is so much in this house--books for all ages, workout equipment, pool table, games, puzzles, toys, and more--that we never were able to enjoy all of it! If you're planning a family gathering, you can't go wrong with this gem.
