Home Away From Home

The kitchen was very well stocked with anything you might need to cook. Fridge was nice and big. Loved the bar space for kids to sit and to use as extra counter space. Loved power strips for plenty of outlets.Back yard was very private and we enjoyed the fire pit.Location is good. One complaint was just the uneven flooring from room to room.
