This is a beautiful venue sitting next to a picturesque vineyard. The unit had a full living room, dining room, kitchen and bath on the lower level with 2 large bedrooms on the upper level, with a deck and a large bathroom with a jet tub. There was a washer and dryer in the garage. Off the living room was a beautiful private yard with a dining table with umbrella and chairs. The property has a solar heated pool and a tennis court. We enjoyed staying here and would come back again
