"This home is a great property for large groups and a real bargain. Our group of older ladies has been here for four years now and we’re coming back again next year. It is absolutely perfect to host a large group. Plenty of bedrooms. Lots of dining areas and gathering spaces. We really enjoyed the pool and the view of the lake. Very private and quiet property as well. Highly recommend."
