We rented this home for an extended family get together. Gorgeous property from the moment you drive up. Beautifully built and maintained, huge kitchen, fully equipped. Cool views of the Lake Placid ski jumps off the back porch, and a very quiet and pretty view all around. Fun to use the firepits and fireplaces in mid-August! Not exactly summer Texas weather :) Tons of room to spread out and have different pieces of the family doing different activities, between the pool, dining areas, upstairs giant TV/game room, where my nephew basically lived for the week.
Easy to pop into town for shopping, meals, activities, nice spot for walks from the house, cycling etc.
As to the house, again, tons of storage, places to hang and read, do puzzles etc. We used them all, including living, office area upstairs, top floor game room, garage workout area, screened in porch with fireplace, poolside...you get the picture.
Rooms-Two really lovely master suites on the second floor, with fantastic bathrooms, large closet areas, excellent views and private balcony areas, fireplaces, soaking tubs. Really lovely. Two other bunk rooms that can sleep about 6-8 folks also on that second floor with one full bathroom and a powder. Downstairs, the owners kindly set up the huge office as a queen bedroom for my elderly mother, with a giant stone fireplace and full bathroom, ample views. Perfect situation. There are more beds upstairs, if you know that many people :)
Nice laundry, mudroom, handy also. We used the kitchen a bunch, perfect spot for entertaining and hanging out, more than enough room to allow everyone to help!
Bottom line, a large modern, lovely home in a great spot, not easy to find all that in the area, so that was great!
