The house is very large and has plenty of space for a family to spread out and relax. The pool was great and we used it everyday. We made a Cajun boil and ate it on the huge table on the deck. We will stay here again.

The house was very large and spacious. We loved the huge deck as well as the open kitchen and living room. The bedding was clean and we had our pick of plenty of bedrooms and beds. Things that need tending to: white fluid on kitchen counter (we cleaned), hand prints all over doors leading to deck, roaches all over 2nd floor, many chairs on deck broken, railing on back side of house is flimsy, bathrooms need repairs and updates.
