In town for family event and was impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked for home cooked meals. We were surprised not to find tv in living room on first floor but it promoted family time. Great location and very comfortable.

Great stay!

I stayed with a group of friends over a weekend for a bachelorette party, and it was a great spot! Azy was so helpful even before our stay started - answering any questions i had while preparing for the weekend. The house itself was spacious, great for our group and clean. It was also well stocked for cooking. I'd definitely stay here again!

Great spot to gather for the holidays

Great experience overall- three bedrooms with two large beds and two twin beds along with pull out couch. Somewhat crowded for a family group of 12 but as long as you like your family, works great. Can't beat for the cost.
