The home was so relaxing, well stocked and a great place to enjoy quiet and family time. They have so much to offer as far as extras and my grandkids really enjoyed fishing.We did have an issue with the downstairs room and Sheila was very responsive and took action to remedy the situation. We take great care of homes but were made to feel we were the reason for the issue and that was a bit insulting. Overall, we had a great experience.
