The fully equipped kitchen overlooks the picturesque backyard, offering a delightful space where you can prepare meals and enjoy casual dining. The spacious dining table comfortably accommodates eight guests, making it perfect for family gatherings or dinner parties. At the front of the home, you'll discover a charming bedroom adorned with a plush queen bed and a large closet that provides ample storage for your belongings. Just steps away, a shared bathroom awaits, offering modern amenities with a tub/shower combination and a convenient full-size washer and dryer. As you venture further, you'll find three additional connected bedrooms tucked away toward the back of the home. The first bedroom is designed with a full-over-queen bunk bed, perfect for siblings or friends to enjoy a cozy night's sleep. Continuing through the next room features a cheerful twin bunk bed, ideal for younger guests. This home is thoughtfully designed with families in mind, equipped with a high chair, a pack-n-play, a delightful selection of children's books, and an assortment of toys for babies and toddlers to keep little ones entertained.

The way the rooms are set up makes it a bit difficult with children as there are three rooms all connected and if someone is sleeping, then others can get trapped. Neighbors have a somewhat aggressive dog that made it difficult to let our dog out in the yard (not fully fenced, so neighbor dog came into our yard). The location is covenient and quiet, a great resting spot for all sorts of adventures in the area. ##### Chris M.
