8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
Overall, this is a spacious property that works well for large groups, but several areas need attention.The house has plenty of room to spread out, and the layout allows groups to gather comfortably while still offering space for quiet time. The kitchen is well equipped, there are multiple living areas, and amenities like the pool, hot tub, and game room were enjoyable for both kids and adults. The host was responsive and communicative; however, I would have preferred not to need so much communication throughout the stay.There were multiple issues that negatively impacted our weekend. As others noted, there aren’t enough bathrooms for the number of beds. One tub is heavily peeling & needs to be fixed. The WiFi was not working, which was especially frustrating since we were unable to stream or share family videos as planned.We also experienced lighting issues, particularly in the kitchen and the in‑law suite. Several lights were either not functioning or difficult to operate, creating unnecessary inconvenience.In addition, the grounds need significant upkeep. While the property itself is lovely, the landscaping was very overgrown upon arrival, which made a poor first impression.This home has strong potential, but dealing with these issues during our stay was disappointing and took time away from our weekend. After asking, we were provided a very small refund for the inconvenience, which did not feel proportional to the disruptions.

This home was beautiful. Devin responded quickly anytime I had a question. I would definitely recommend this home
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
We had a fairly short but great stay at this property with a large group. There was plenty of room for hanging out, the pool and hot tub were clean and inviting, the kitchen was well equipped, and the host, Devin, was easy to work with and very flexible with us. Would highly recommend for a large group gathering.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
The property is well located and the grounds are beautiful! The house is okay. For the amount of beds upstairs for sleeping there is only 1 bathroom. The number of overnight guests does not match well with the amount of showers. The house was warm and sometimes uncomfortable at night for sleeping. We never used the pool or downstairs.
