The second bedroom has a full sized bed, and there is a room designed to be kid-friendly with a bunk bed that is twin over full. All have comfortable bedding and are tastefully furnished. The recently remodeled bath has a shower/tub combination and a vessel sink. Free WiFi access is provided to keep you connected while you are away. The living room has a 48" smart TV with streaming DirectTV access. You can also stream movies using your online accounts. One end of the living area has a dining table that expands to seat 6-8 people for family meals and there is a desk for work if needed. The kitchen is fully equipped with all appliances, dishes, and cookware. There is a small dining table in the kitchen that seats 2 to 4.

Family reunion

House is beautiful well decorated. Kitchen supplies well stocked and we cook a lot . beds comfortable. Beautiful neighborhood . we had a problem and a repair man sent to take care of it. very quick to respond to questions. Washer and dryer were in the listing but not really available. Listing needs to have that change. i would recommend this to other family that are going to visit our cheriton family.

Quaint and Cozy

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay. Host was timely and great with communication. Attention to detail was appreciated, from the linens, robes and high end towels to the cupboard stocked with coffee and filters. Quiet neighborhood and easy to find. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic house for our family weekend

We can’t say enough about how nice this house is! The photos do not do it justice. The house has tons of space, very nice decor, big kitchen, great tv, reclining sofa, and comfy beds. Will 100% be back!

Perfect Stay

The home is so nicely decorated and we had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the awesome reclining sofa that also had chargers on each end. A nice quiet home. Look forward to when you have the basement completed for even more beds. The second bathroom is really nice.
