First, our family recommends the home, amenities and properties as a 5 STAR experience! Location is fairly private with forested areas all around to our liking. The home is very expansive with 3 levels perfect for at least 3 families to have separate privacy. The garage allowed us to have a staging area to move in and move out as well as prepare for our daily activities. Inside the house, we experience a well designed space with accommodating, sizable bathrooms and bedrooms. The kitchen is very practical and perfect for cooking. The family room is spacious with good seating and wide side windows to enjoy the outside world. In the basement, we were very pleased with the available entertaining activities that included a foosball table, ping pong table, and pool table. Also the basement floor has a sofa sitting area with a TV for viewing. There is a big cache of children's toys, which were also a big hit for our kids!
Outside, is a children's playset, a rope swing and big open area, and our children enjoyed these immensely.
The driveway is very expansive allowing for parking for many vehicles. The front porch was great in the early morning hours to sit on the swing or rocking chairs and the side deck was perfect in the early evening to use the rustic table and chairs for eating or playing games.
The firepit was also a big hit for our family as we sat out to very late hours just enjoying the nighttime experience and burning a fire.
A very BIG plus with the property is the power generator. We experienced a Utility Company power outage that affected 12,000 patrons, including us around 6:30AM one day and the generator acted like a true warrior kicking in to preserve our power in the house while the Utility Company fixed the problem over the next 4 hours. An A PLUS! We can't say enough how grateful were were not to lose power when others suffered!
The last reviewer commented that they had water problems. This was NOT the case for us. The owners acted responsibly to resolve the mechanical problem before our time at the house and informed us of the resolution prior to our visit. We had plenty of water.
Our only recommendation is that the owners consider adding a small chest freezer to either their pantry or garage to allow for guests to store their frozen foods. Overall we had a fabulous time and would come back!
