Awesome girls' weekend!
We had a great time in Sturbridge. Can't beat the location of this house - it's absolutely beautiful, and very close to Old Sturbridge Village and a cute coffee shop we frequented during the long weekend.
Everything was nice and clean, the hot tub was great, and it was easy to check in. The beds are comfortable and it was nice to not have to worry about the linens upon checkout. The host replied super promptly when we had questions about the location of trash/recycling bins, and when there was an issue with the oven!
The oven worked just fine, but initially wouldn't turn on because the breaker connected to it was switched off. It turns out, this was because the control panel on the attached microwave was malfunctioning, and made a very loud beeping sound periodically for the hour or so that we used it before we switched the breaker off again!
The rental sleeps 8, but I would recommend an air mattress or two if you have more than 6 people, as the full-size bunks are hard to share. We had some trouble getting the TV working as there is only a cable box and no devices for streaming/casting from a phone or computer (you need an HDMI cord).
I would also recommend to the host/future guests to have a few more towels available, to make sure trash bags are stocked, and to provide a bit more toilet paper. We ended up making a quick Walmart run for the missing bags and for some extra TP.
