Great spot for the family

We had a rather large group (10) and everyone was comfortable. The ground-floor suite was especially nice for my elderly father, as the stairs were challenging for him. The place is a nice mix of rustic (I've never seen a wood-burning hot tub before) and modern (great kitchen!). We had a couple of dumb questions, like how to control the electric for the upstairs shower, which the host was friendly about and responsive to via WhatsApp. All-in-all, a great vacation home!
