We were in town for a funeral so unfortunately wasnt able to enjoy the house as much as I would have liked to. The view is breathtaking, we saw deer, wild turkeys, swans and more. I would suggest kids 8 would be better suited. I had to chase my little around to ensure they weren't touching or playing with any of the decorations. Plenty of bathrooms and counter space. No cell reception but the Wi-Fi worked throughout the whole home. Would recommend! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/966cd991-6294-4167-9e17-656c00b011d0-1754843370117.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Devin k.
