Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol F., Chicago 20 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous place for 3 generations We had a perfect 4-day vacation there. It is a beautiful house in a great location. There was room for all nine of us to play together and also to find a space for some alone time. We hung out and relaxed. We cooked together in the well-stocked kitchen. We played games in the house and on the large area of mowed grass. The kids swam and played in three pools in the owner's club. The adults used the work out room and the tennis courts there. We went horse back riding at a stable a short 8 minute drive from the house. We want to come back next summer! ##### Carol F.

The house comfortably sleeps 10 and there is a lot of space for everyone to spread out. Almost all of the appliances are brand new. The hot tub and sauna were a nice touch and in good condition. Having access to wood for the wood burning fireplace in the main living room was lovely. Sitting in that main room, which overlooked the scenic valley, watching it snow, was a highlight of our trip. The convenience of the house to the main road was also nice for trips to town. The furniture was comfortable. Communication with the owner was easy and quick. Overall, I would highly recommend this property. It is beautiful and provided a great space for a weekend that we will never forget. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexander F. 4 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location ##### Alexander F.
