10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
We visited with 4 adults and 7 kids. The views were amazing and the property was well cared for and well stocked. The kids particularly loved the basketball court and climbing wall out front as well as the fire pit and hot tub. It was perfect for our stay and we would 100 percent recommend this property!
