We had a wonderful stay! We were a group of 16, eight adults and eight children, and the house never felt crowded. I was initially concerned because some homes that accommodate large groups can feel cramped, but that was not the case here at all. The home was spacious, very clean, and exactly as pictured. We loved how each floor offered something different. The kids especially enjoyed the game room downstairs, while the adults could relax upstairs. The open kitchen and living area gave us plenty of room to cook, eat, and spend time together, and having TVs throughout the house was a great bonus. The hosts were very responsive and provided clear instructions. Our only regret was that our schedule was so packed that we didn't get to enjoy everything the property offered, including the outdoor space, s'mores area, and other amenities. We would absolutely stay here again, but next time I would add an extra day just to enjoy the house!

Cathleen’s home is enormous and in a quiet wooded neighborhood. The indoor and outdoor spaces are great. We loved the deck, huge great room, game room, and fire pit. There is plenty of space for the family to spread out. The community amenities are very nice. We went to North Beach in the late afternoon on a Monday and we were the only people there for two hours. Cathleen’s communication was friendly and very prompt, and she was very accommodating when we requested a late checkout. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful home in a peaceful location. Looks just like the photos. Loved the deck, fire pit, and the large kitchen and living/dining room. Game room was fun too and the children’s playroom is so cute. Hosts answered all questions very promptly. We had a wonderful time.
