60th Birthday Celebration

The spacious, well-maintained home was perfect for our group. The bedrooms were roomy, and the living areas provided plenty of space to relax and enjoy time together. The fully equipped kitchen made meal prep easy. A highlight was the neighboring estate with horses. The children loved it! The outdoor spaces were ideal for relaxation, with patios for morning coffee. Overall, this rental was the perfect setting for a memorable getaway.

Great time!

We had a wonderful time celebrating an anniversary with 13 family members. The home and property were lovely. Ample space for all to enjoy time together. The pool, hot tub and lower level were particularly fun for the younger adults. John was terrific and very attentive to any needs we had.

Family Time

The family came together to spend quality time. The place was great, but the only down fall was all the mattresses was very uncomfortable. This was the experience of all my guest. Maybe all the beds can use mattress tops. Besides that the place and host was great.

Dinner Party

We celebrated my husband’s 50th birthday with a surprise Murder Mystery Dinner Party. We had 18 guests and then another 20 came by for the dinner party. The lower level allowed us to set up (4) round tables so we could all sit together. We brought in a caterer and bartender. The space was so perfect for what we needed. There were more extra towels and sheets in every closet. This house accommodates a large party very easily. We would love to come back in the summer and enjoy the pool! John was so terrific to work with. The house is so amazing!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This accommodation was not suitable for us. After making the payment, they charged an extra fee for each person. The courtyard was full of mosquitoes that constantly bothered us. Even though we paid for cleaning, they said that the dining room or the rooms were not clean and that we had to pay extra. For these reasons, neither we nor our friends were satisfied and we decided not to come back here.

We loved our stay here! We were here for a few days after Christmas—a lovely home and setting. It was perfect for what we needed—a large space with plenty of room for small kids. We loved the outdoor space too! Horses next door were a nice addition to the setting. Hosts were great to work with!
