The house was a bit smaller than i thought it was, but the kitchen and bathrooms were uodated and nice. The stairs are very steep. The back deck was very nice, and we used it several times. Eating together was difficult because some had to sit at the island, while others sat at a small table. The outside table was a good size, however. Overall, it was a nice home, and we enjoyed our stay! The pond is a special aspect of the home. The host was very helpful, too.
