We enjoyed the activities that were available from the pool, kayaking, fitness center to the courts for tennis, basketball and volleyball. We did it all! House was great and both owner and property manager were attentive. Beds were not as firm as we would like but spacious and clean. Quiet area and great surroundings! Would definitely recommend and would stay there again!
