Great Family Gathering Home

This is a large, beautiful home! The house was well-stocked and beautifully decorated! It is designed for large groups to gather and have fun, and we did! We were there for Thanksgiving and appreciated the well stocked kitchen, large dining table, cozy relaxing areas with 2 fireplaces, as well as a fun game room! There was ample parking, even use of the garage, and the location was convenient for access to the State Park! Next trip to the area, we will definitely stay here again!

The house was big enough to hold our large family with plenty of space for everybody. The master bath has an incredible jet tub and the views are amazing.
