Property was immaculate. It was exceptionally well stocked and all the linens, appliances and other equipment were high end. My family of 14 (including 7 children had a wonderful visit. We paid for the pool to be heated every day which is quite expensive but definitely worth it for us. The communication with our host was exceptionally pleasant and easy. She was always responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this property. You won't be disappointed. We hope to come again.

Wonderful home perched on top of the hill, just removed and private enough while with 20 minutes of most of the areas highlights (we were in the area for a wedding at Ethereal Gardens with additional receptions in downtown area).It’s stocked with all the items needed to cook great meals and enjoy the pool.The setup is awesome and was enjoyed with a very supportive layout for everyone to have their quiet spaces when needed but also gather together comfortably. The group included my husband and two young children, my sister, her husband and two young children, my senior parents, and my sister and partner (they stayed above the garage unit and loved sleeping in and choosing to when to join the chaos of families - young pups).The hosts were extremely responsive. We are grateful for the week here and the time we got to catch up with our family and extended family.
