The space
We’ve designed this home with children and families in mind. We installed dimmer switches and provided a toddler bed, crib, baby gate, games, toys, books, highchair, and step stools. We also custom-built the backyard so parents can gather around the fire pit while watching their children play on the playground. The infinity-edge water feature creates a calming atmosphere, offering a relaxing space where families can unwind and enjoy endless fun outdoors.
Additionally, the first-floor master bedroom with a walk-in shower provides an easy and convenient setup for multi-generational families to enjoy their time together, no need to climb stairs to relax.

Summary: My family and I needed a quiet place to stay while we met up with family for a funeral. The house was clean, comfortable, quiet, and had plenty of room for 6 adults to mingle while also having space. It was close enough to the main road for access to everything we needed, while still being in a quiet neighborhood. The host was very accommodating and communicative. Highly recommend.
