Great house
Perfect house for two families. Plenty of room to spread out, lots of games to keep the kids entertained, big hot tub, great backyard for playing in the snow, super comfy beds... what more could you want. We'd be happy to stay here again.
The home is beautiful, limited property, the only concern was a broken lock on the living room door. Beautiful! Family had a great time with the game room
Beautiful home, great amenities, would definitely stay there again. Got response prompt when I had a question from the property manager within business hours. 10/10.
The perfect house to keep 3 generations entertained, engaged, and enjoying one another’s company. To quote the grandkids, “ Better than Disneyland!” “Better than Fortnight!”

Great summer vacation home for a big family
The house was in great shape and rooms are very accommodating. We enjoy all the amenities. I would try to see how to solve bug problems in the basement game room as well as the common bathroom downstairs as it was a little scary at night seeing so many bugs. One thing I am not as clear was the stiff charge on cleaning as we don't see a major difference. We still need to wipe with our own sanitizer wipes in many places. And the trash in the bear bin from previous visit was there, so we could only use half of it.
