Family gathering
The property was very adequate for our gathering. We were gone from the property for almost three different days to do an amusement park, The Grotto, wine tasting, and swimming/picnic at a local county park. We felt that the town was very small and we had to travel some distance to get anything we needed.

Best deal for the money. House was well stocked (pots, pans, even a Keurig) Host also provides paper towels, toilet paper and bath towels. Great comfy rooms and beautiful decor. Both comfy and classy. Plenty of room for a large group. Would definitely stay again.
