The place is really well furnished for a large group. We had 16, including 10 adults, and we had plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of towels, dishware, etc. We cooked pretty much every night, and we didn't lack for anything. The pantry even has what I assume to be left over spices, oils, and other cooking supplies from prior guests, so we didn't have to buy a bunch of that stuff. The house is tucked up into the neighborhood, at the end of a long, sometimes-steep, single-lane road, but driving 10mph it never felt like it was unsafe. We had 5 cars with plenty of space for parking. There is a little creek down the road that the kids played in a few times, but otherwise there is not great outdoor space, and if there are trails near the house, we didn't see them. But considering the Blue Ridge Parkway and so many other great areas are around, we didn't look too hard for trails right around the house.
