Perfect property for entertaining!

We stayed with a group of 7 and used both houses. This is a perfect entertaining property! Great furnishings & decor! Spacious living room & kitchen space. The backyard is a dream! Property felt really secure with full fence & gated drives! The room with the bunk beds is actually adjoined to the master so it would make a great family type room as it isn’t its own room per se. We had plenty of space without using it! Lucas is great to communicate with and is very responsive! If you stay at this property you won’t be disappointed!
