Annette P. Mar 2, 2025 02:54:07 AM
Summary: We came here for a three day weekend, little family getaway. There were 12 of us, five adults and seven children, ranging from age 4 to 16. We all had a great time! The swanky bar and the garage game room were the hotspots. There were plenty of fun activities for everyone to do! We all loved all of the retro amenities, from the popcorn maker, record player to the jukebox and everything in between We had a few issues with the hot tub, but the hosts were readily available to help with it. I would definitely stay here again!

Summary: Our family gathering was absolutly perfect. This home slept all 9 of us comfortably and the multi-level home provided opportunity for both game playing and quiet conversations. It truly is a perfect home for families with children. The outside offers opportunity to play and explore as well as a fire pit to relax around. The host, Elena was so friendly and accomidating. She worked at making sure we were happy and comfortable. The response time when I contacted her with questions was quick and courteous. We loved it and we hope to make it back next year. Thank you!

Summary: We have a group of 10 friends who have been going on an annual trip for the last five years. We tried this property and it had everything we could possibly need. It was clean, spacious, with plenty of fun activities. The basement bar and garage were the hangout spots, and we ended evenings around the fire pit. Great stay, and we plan on coming again!
