Fall Family Break
This property was all we were hoping it would be. This Fall gave us dry, sunny weather all except the days we were here!! BUT that didn't matter because of the many activities offered here. We had an all family pickle ball tournament, a paper airplane contest, the boys played basketball. There was plenty of room for games, pool, puzzles and more. The kids used the pool (too cold for adults), but everyone used the hot tub! When it was nice out the kids hiked and played in the leaves. The space inside was perfect for our group. We had a wonderful time. Thank you so much!!

Excellent retreat location
From the moment I found this place online through our stay all the way up into our departure. This property did not disappoint so much to do in so much room. The basketball court is an awesome addition and can also be used for dodgeball and volleyball. Lots of things to do for activities. We were overwhelmed by how much there was to do at the house and all of the amenities. Actually, can’t wait to come down here again looking to do a friends and family getaway there! A+ Rating!

Good time had by all.
I’m glad I am a carpenter. Because I had to adjust about all the bifold doors because they wouldn’t open or close very well because of new carpeting. if I wouldn’t have done that, they probably would have been ruined by the end of the stay. Also took a little plastic tack off of the bottom of the door, going into the bedroom on the first floor. It was making an arc on the carpeting which would have worn the carpeting real fast.week Also fixed one of the porch 45° angle.

Beautiful estate in secluded location was perfect for all ages! We are near 80, our kids are 50-somethings... grandkids are 20-somethings... great-grands are littles. A great time was had by all!

Perfect small town getaway!
We loved the location and setting of this property. The town is wonderful with a few restaurants and great parks! The home itself had a wonderful layout with plenty of comfortable beds, lounge spaces and eating/seating. We loved the variety of activities, especially the pool, pickle ball, basketball and ping pong table. The large island in the kitchen made feeding 11 grandchildren easier! :) The pool was heated 🙌 it was very private and beautiful. We had 21 people and no one felt cramped all week. We loved the 3(!) washers and dryers but the dryers took several cycles to actually dry. The pool was a bit dirty upon arrival but the host came and cleaned/shocked it and it was fine. Overall we loved it and would love to come back again!

Amazing getaway
We had an amazing 2 days getaway with our friends and family! Our almost 5 hour drive to this like in a fairytale house location was so worth it. Very quite place, mesmerizing view from the balcony and relaxing beach style feeling from the pool. The house was clean and comfortable with all the amenities you need to make your stay feel lime home. Adults enjoyed the pool, but the cherry on the top was the huge, modern gym, were kids were having a blast! Actually an amazing addition along with all the other amenities the house provided. Would definitely recommand this owners and the house to anyone who is looking for a top vacation with a twist of home comfy feeling!

Rinker Family Christmas 2023
Lots of opportunities for all kinds of activities such as basketball, volleyball, dodgeball, ping pong, pool, and hot tub were enjoyed. There was Plenty of room for seating to gather for games of all kinds, for visiting, and for meals or just relaxing. We didn’t leave the property except to take a walk in the park next door and go to church which is really close too. A great place anyone would enjoy.
