The house was stunning as was the location. It was fully equipped with everything we needed and more. The only thing missing, in our opinion, was a bigger Tv and an extra bedroom that was shown on the site. We made it work and everyone had a wonderful time!

Sadly, due to the arrival of the cyclone bomb weather the power went out and we had to leave for a couple days; despite the installment of a generator, we had no heat, no fridge, no lights. I am so glad we went back for the weekend! Would love to visit again! ##### Maureen C.

We had some confusion on check-in as VRBO sent us the wrong door code. The hosts were very helpful with that and with a few other questions that came up. We were a group of six senior women and appreciated our mobility issues being accommodated so well. ##### Randy and Pam N.
