This home was perfect for our needs! It is very well stocked with enough table settings/chairs, etc. for a large group. The furnishings are nice. We liked how close it is to the lake. Plenty of elbow room!
We had an amazing stay at this Garden City house! It was perfect for our college athletic group—tons of space for everyone, super cozy, and laid out in a way that made it easy to relax together and still have room to spread out.Check-in was quick and seamless, which we really appreciated with a large group and a busy schedule. The home was clean, comfortable, and clearly set up with groups in mind.We couldn’t have asked for a better place—plenty of room, great vibes, and an easy, stress-free experience. We’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone traveling with a team or larger group!
