We loved this rental! We had two families enjoy the house with 3 kids among us. Most of our time was spend on the front porch watching the kids enjoy the hammock chairs and watching the chipmunks and birds.Unfortunately we were there during a heat wave, so the upstairs bedroom was a little too warm to be comfortable, but we moved a mattress down to one of the main bedrooms and slept like babies! The house had so much space for everyone.We’d 100% stay here again! The neighborhood was amazing and we loved our morning runs and our evening walks. Our kids were so delighted by the fun toys, coloring books, and games that were are the property. The hospitality of the host was top notch.
We had three families staying at the home over the weekend while our children showed animals at the state fair. The location was amazing and within minutes of all sorts of restaurants, coffee shops, and of course the fairgrounds. All three of the families were pleased with their rooms and areas. The only down fall, was that none of the games in the game room were functional (the dart game had a lot of tips in the holes on the actual board) and the upstairs bedroom with the bunk beds was pretty hot. We would recommend more fans in the home. Maybe adding some ceiling fans to help with air movement. Other than that it was def a five star stay and a beautiful home. We would def stay here again.
Nice property, clean, well stocked. Host was responsive. Close to trail and can walk to some restaurants. Quiet neighborhood. Great for families and large groups.
