The outdoor area with a heated pool, basketball court, trampoline, and spacious deck was a highlight. The house felt homely, had renovated bathrooms, and provided ample entertainment for both kids and adults.

Everything was excellent. Our host Alicia was the very best ever.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2020
We stayed here for 3 nights with our kids. The house is specious, huge deck with outdoor setting and lounges. The pool was great and the trampoline was a hit with our kids. However, it was raining most of our stay and given it’s such a huge deck it would have been nice if it had some sort of cover. The bathrooms and laundry were renovated and very clean. The rest of the house such as kitchen, carpets and curtains were old, dusty and needed a proper clean. The kitchen needs a proper scrub down and abit of upgrade too. There were a lot of spider webs in the house and the couches and chairs weren’t the most comfortable either. The fire place was awesome on one of the nights that temperature dropped drastically. The beds weren’t that comfortable, however the bed sheets were clean and fresh. Also, bathroom towels and pool towels were very luxurious and in almost brand new condition. The stay was ok, but the place wasn’t what we expected.
