Amazing
We wanted to rent a space large enough to house a group of brothers, sisters, their spouses and kids. This space was perfectly amazing!! So much room to sleep with private bedrooms for the couples and loft beds for the kids. Separate livingroom areas and dining area Separate from the game table! Lots of games and activities already there to be used. Our daughters favorite was air hockey!! This is the perfect place to rent for large get togethers to hang out, especially in the winter because there is so much space for the kids to run around and so many things to keep them entertained!! Even an indoor basketball hoop! We loved that too! Heated floors in the bathrooms... AMAZING! We definitely plan on renting this place again and enjoying good quality time together!

Great Space for Family Groups
We spent the weekend with our parents, siblings, and their kids. The house was as shown in pics. Enough beds for everyone, well stocked kitchen, and the owners replied promptly when I had questions. Everyone was very happy with the house and you can tell the owners have put thought into the place and what people will need.

So much room!
This property was fantastic for our fishing group. We had 12 people, one was 9 years old, and everyone had a bed to sleep in. The kitchen was big enough for making our meals and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. All the games were great to have. It was very nice being right in town so we could walk to the bar or the grocery store. We had 3 boats and there was plenty of parking area for them and we were able to plug them in. It was really nice to have a spacious garage as well. We have another group of guys that are looking to come here in the spring and I plan on booking this for us again next fall. Thanks!

Wonderful, unique and fun property.
We had a girls trip and stayed at this unique property. It was exactly as described. Very roomy, tons of beds, plenty of seating for everyone and room to spread out. They had lots of games to keep us all busy. The house was very well stocked and there wasn't anything we needed that the host hadn't already supplied. Thank you Julie for letting us experience the town hall.

Great for family get together
This property is exactly as listed. We had a group of 13 from 3 years old to grandma age. We had lots of space to spread out, plenty of sleeping room with nice beds and everything provided for us. The kids loved the upstairs "orphange" as they called it with sleeping areas, toys and craft activities. They had a fashion show on the "catwalk" and raced each other on the scooters. We had a game tournament for the adults and kids alike. We were able to cook most our meals but enjoyed walking down the street to the restaurant for a meal out complete with horseracing and meat raffle. Such a good location for a weekend getaway. We would recommend to other families!
