The perfect place to create loving memories with family!
We celebrated a milestone birthday with 3 generations of family members gathered together. You'd think that many people with a wide age gap would have someone not having their needs met within the week's stay. Not so.
We took full advantage of main house and the guest house to spread out. Multiple front porches, a generous deck, plus a tranquil side flower garden meant everyone could find a quiet nook that suited their personality for a bit of down time. The large dining room / living room meant the entire family could gather together for meals with ease.
The provided amenities go above and beyond what is listed in the description. We arrived to a stunning bouquet of flowers that lasted all week long, plus soap/lotion baskets in each bathroom. The kitchen is not only fully stocked with what you would expect, but each time we thought it might be nice to have XYZ kitchen gadget that we have at home to make cooking this particular thing, lo and behold, we found it! Immersion blender for creamy milkshakes? Not only provided, but one in each kitchen! Are you a coffee snob? No worries, there were 4 different ways to make your morning cup of joe.
We did communicate with the host and the caretaker a few times during our stay. We found them both to be extremely prompt in replying, polite, kind, and very understanding. The same can be said for the questions we had prior to our arrival.
The comprehensive house book had excellent To Do recommendations. We found the food tips, both on eating out and grocery shopping to be spot on! We left the stay feeling like the hosts would be someone we would like to know in real life, as our taste in food and kitchen gadgets were eerily similar.
My wish for small changes for a future stay would have been a curtain in the guest house room that faced the deck and more towel racks in the guest house. If the person sleeping in that bedroom went to bed while the deck lights were still on that room was rather bright.
However, that plethora of kid friendly toys (Legos, Magna Tiles, coloring books, sharpened colored pencils in every color imaginable, games for all ages, and more) the generous amount of clean bath towels, kitchen towels, dish soap, laundry detergent, the list could go on, more than made up for the any of the reasons we contacted the owners.
I sincerely hope we will be back in the future.
This a property not to be missed!
