We booked this property last minute as our previous VRBO had to cancel due to a plumbing leak 2 days prior to our trip. We were planning a family vacation with 7 people, so we needed a good bit of space. This place is very large and was great for our family. The house is laid out a little bit weird, but if you have a large number of people, you are going to have plenty of space for everyone. The property is located at the end of the road and is surrounded by trees, so if you want to be secluded then this is the place for you. The last mile and a half is just a gravel road, so you have to be careful and take it slow. You don't need a 4-wheel drive - at least not if the weather is good - but it is a bit more challenging if you are in a car. Generally the place was great, but there are a few things that could be improved. The glass cooktop in the kitchen is not in great shape. It still worked fine, but it has a huge crack in it. It could also be a bit cleaner as there was visible dust on the pendants hanging over the breakfast bar. And then there were the millipedes. Now, I realize being out in the woods that there are going to be critters, but there were so many millipedes in the house. I did notice outside that there were tons of them on the foundation of the house, so there's no surprise by how many there were inside the house. It was also a bit rainy when we were there which might be why there were so many around. Just something to note if you really dislike bugs.
