Great place and host
The house was what you’d expect from the listing and the host was super helpful and understanding. Backyard is a great environment and perfect for a getaway. But be warned when you read the rules and it says quiet hours at 9pm they mean it. We were by the fire talking at a normal level but got called in due to the neighbor. The next door neighbor is a someone to watch out for, around 10pm me and one other person were outside whispering and he yelled threatening to wake us up and proceeded to rev his engine at 6am to wake us up. All in all the place is amazing and so is the host just be aware that the quiet after 9 is very strict and the neighbor will ensure you follow it.

Overall good place
We had a big group of kids. We really enjoyed cooking for the whole family and eating outside and enjoying everyone’s company. Everything was great except the following: No music allowed at the pool. ??? No one allowed outside past 9pm. Cops came to the door because we were talking by the fire pit. Which contradicts the use of the fire pit. The sun went down at 8pm.

After a year of many family losses and diagnoses, it was important to gather the family for togetherness and support. We could not have picked a better place.

Memories made at the Ultimate Get away
This property accommodated our family of 13 for the week very comfortably. The house was clean, checkin and out super easy and had everything we needed for the week. The outdoor space is so amazing. The outdoor pool and hot tub were loved by the grandkids. There were enough pool towels for everyone! The adults enjoyed nights by the fire pit. The beds were comfy so everyone was able to get a good nights rest and be ready to go the next day. The location was within 30 minutes of anywhere we wanted to adventure to. We would definitely stay again.

Great Family Meetup
This was a great meet up spot for 5 families from all over the country. Our group included 6 adults and 7 kids ranging from 2 1/2 to 7 years old. Plenty of space for everyone and lots of comments about how comfortable the beds were. We ventured out only once, going to a beach 40 minutes away and everyone wanted to get back quickly to the house for pool, spa and game room time. Communication with Mo was seamless and he responded so promptly to everything and brought us new pool floats when I shared that the others were flat. Highly recommend for large family groups that want to spend time with each other swimming and enjoying the property.
