Bachelorette party

This was an amazing experience! The location was perfect and the property was beautiful. We had a minor issue with the heat not working and there was a maintenance worker out to help in no time at all! I will definitely be back.

Nice but needs deep clean

House was nice and very spacious, but needs a deep clean. Loved the hot tub but my 11 year old son got hot tub folliculitis and has to be on an anti biotic for 10 days.
