everything was very nice. Lots of extras, the pickleball court was awesome since we did have 2 days of rain. That was really great with kids. My only comment would be maybe you need to spray for spiders. we killed several large ones in the basement. Otherwise it was great!

Great property for a large group gathering. Lots is seating areas inside and outside. Pool was great in summer for adults and kids.

We came for a fun girl's trip and had a great time staying here and would definitely recommend it to anyone considering this property. The property was very clean, comfortable, and there is so much space and everyone had their own little slice of peace when needed. There was basically everything we needed for a fun and relaxing trip.Make sure you get the lay of that land on arrival, to find where everything is at and how to work everything. The kitchen is fully stocked and a cook's dream. If you have added on the pool house or in-law suite, make sure you check all the cabinets in each as well. The pool house has a ton of great cups to utilize at the pool and a some pool toys to use, but I would recommend maybe bringing a few of your own. Note - there is not AC in pool house, but there are ceiling fans and it was comfortable on a 85 degree day.Devin, our host was excellent—friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. We ran into a couple of issues, but they were addressed right away and resolved quickly, which we really appreciated. It made a big difference knowing the host was attentive and genuinely cared about making sure we had a good experience, you cannot ask for anything more than that.Overall, we had a ton of fun and really enjoyed our stay. If you're looking for a clean, well-kept place with a host who is quick to help when needed, this is a great choice. We'd happily stay here again!

The inside of the house was clean. The outside was full of very old spiderwebs. Leaves and sticks were all around the sitting area, the pool cushions were soaked with old water and filthy. Some of the pool chairs were broken and not enough for all of us to sit on anyway. While trying to cook, we continued to blow fuses. There was also a hole in the dining room ceiling. Thankfully it didn’t rain. The main bedroom shades did not work and the mattress was very old as well as the pillows. There was huge dip in the middle of the mattress. It was not comfortable at all. The water temperature in sinks and showers were at times scalding hot and other times you only got a cold shower. I truly don’t know what was worse as both were awful! This house must have been beautiful in its heyday. Unfortunately it’s just not well kept. I do stand with the inside being clean but there’s just so much wrong with it.
