The house is very roomy with enough space for nine of us. There are bedrooms upstairs and down. The 2 1/2 baths were very convenient. We enjoyed the dining space in the kitchen and dining room. Some of our family found the lock entry a little difficult. Jeff is an amazing host. He is an excellent communicator.
