Truly a great place to stay. The host was amazing and accommodating to our large group. The checking-in and out details were comprehensive and easy to follow. We also loved the screens in the kitchen that shared travel details, VRBO rules, and wifi. Everything was easy and accessible. Excited to hear about them adding a wedding venue on the property soon! Such a cool place to stay and so close to the lakes!
