Great house, beautiful grounds, central to everything! We'll be back!
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2024
The house was lovely and comfortable. Just a few hick-ups to note: The hot tub temp was 66 the first evening we arrived. Was told it had been dumped and refilled and should warm up quickly. It was in the low 90's the second evening, and up to 104 the third evening (we left on day 4).
The coffee pot was broken the first morning; they dropped off a new one that afternoon. The ice maker was broken. There were quite a few dirty dishes in the cabinet, a dirty wine glass, coffee cup, silver ware and serving bowls.
There was only one hand towel in the master bathroom, and only two hand towels in the second bathroom (that 4 guests were sharing).
Again, the house was lovely, just a few details that slipped through the cracks.

Great location, peaceful and very comfortable. They have a yard for any occasion or event...I counted 5 that are perfectly manicured, felt like royalty. Inside was just as perfect with all the amenities for a large group. Very comfortable beds!! I will absolutly recommend.
