First, we really enjoyed our stay here. Lisa was very accommodating. Everything was clean and comfortable. Everything we needed, we found, including an ice chest in the pantry. The open kitchen connects to the deck by two sets of large french doors keeping everybody together, without being too together. In the evenings, there was plenty of space for everyone to stretch out, relax, and chat. The parking spot in the back of the house was large enough for our 12-pass van. This location really does not sleep 8 adults, but it can work for 7. That being said, it is very difficult to find a place that sleeps 8 adults on a budget, so sometimes you just make it work. A hammock on the deck might be a really nice addition. Lastly, when the house is closed up, a distinct cat odor builds up which dissipates with the doors open. I imagine cat people wouldn't even notice it, but we are not cat people. I would recommend this location, with caveats.
