8.0 / 10Excellent·Aug 2023
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Check in was easy , we were welcomed with a basket of goodies. The location of the property was awesome. The property was very big which made it nice for the kids to run around and burn energy. The swings were a hit for our kids as well. The pool was nice, the hot tub wasn’t very hot, it would have been nice to have some sort of control to heat it up some. The sauna was awesome and easy to operate. It was a little uncomfortable sharing the outside property with other guests but we made it work. The parking on the property was nice. The inside of the house was spacious, it made me a little nervous that there was a lot of decorations around, with kids, but the owners let us know if we needed to move any breakable items we were welcome to. A few cons for the inside- the upstairs got very warm, although there are 2 ac units down stairs (which keeps the downstairs cool) the upstairs got stuffy. We did open the windows but they didn’t have screens so we didn’t leave them open for too long. The beds were very firm. It was great having a washer and dryer however it was a little difficult to operate, a usual manual (in multiple languages would be nice. We didn’t realize you have to empty the water on the dryer so we kept wondering why our clothes were not drying. Overall we were very happy and would stay here again!
