The house itself was nice and had plenty of room for all of us. No AC which I feel should be stated more clearly so guests are aware, however the heat wasn’t too bad especially downstairs. The beds were comfortable for the most part. The bathrooms were nice. There were tons of extra blankets but I doubt they get cleaned on a regular basis based on the amount of blankets per room but it’s nice to know they are there. The front deck was where we hung out the most and I liked the big table it had out there. We are most all our meals out there and played games. However it was covered in dust and cobwebs. The back deck had what looked to be a table and chairs but it was not set up for us nor was it clean. Again tons of cobwebs, dust and debris back there. I wish it had been put together like the pictures show. We may have also enjoyed sitting out there as well. We used the grill on that back deck as well however it was extremely dirty and we cleaned it before we left. I feel the cleanliness of the inside was up to par (besides the upstairs closet having a used water bottle and junk in it) but not the outside. I would stay here again maybe in the winter instead of the summer. Also something to note the pictures do not show but the driveway is actually very steep, and parking can be a little tight.

We got lucky enough to get an amazing snow fall our second night and couldn’t get enough of the winter wonderland. Check in was so easy. I wish they listed all of the added things they have because I didn’t need anything but food! We were constantly shocked they had EVERYTHING we needed. Even a first aid kit with motrin in it (my son started not feeling good and we cheered when we found it)! Showers were stocked and they had plenty of towels. We brought sleds but the last day saw a garage full! We wanted to stay an extra night so badly😍. Our favorite amenities were the fireplaces in the upstairs bedrooms! So easy to use, beautiful, and soo warm! It was nice our kids could pick their room temperature and we could pick ours. The beds upstairs were very and a memory foam topper would’ve made a world of difference! Our kids slept great but my husband and I were hurting after. We didn’t use the downstairs room at all but on the last day I noticed it had a soft topper so we’ll sleep in there next time! The other bummer was the house cleaner showing up 15 minutes early, I thought she’d wait in her car but she she came in and started cleaning around us while we were trying to load the car and my kids were changing into dry clothes. It was pretty awkward and frustrating. We were loaded up in our car at 11 to leave but we had to go in and ask her to move her vehicle so we could get out of the driveway. Obviously not a huge deal but that was the only hiccup! We can’t wait to come stay again!
