Great spot for a big family

We stayed here over NYE w our whole family and had an absolute great time. The big kitchen table was awesome for family meals and big family games, the kids loved the basement basketball and air hockey, and there was plenty of space for all of us to sleep.

Great space

There were 20 of us, extended family, and the common space and game room were excellent. Only 3 bathrooms caused us some bottlenecks a couple times but all in all, great experience.

Awesome place for family!

The pictures don't do it justice! Great kitchen for big gathering. We had a family gathering after a funeral. Host was super responsive. Loved all the little details- plenty of kitchen items. Lots of room for visiting and fun and safe area for kids! This place was amazing, comfortable. Would stay here againin a heartbeat!
