A Dream Wedding Week Retreat - Almost Perfect!
I had the joy of hosting my bridal party at this mesmerizing VRBO property for our wedding week. The experience was exceptional, though I'd like to share a couple of minor points. The property's allure is undeniable, with breathtaking views and an enchanting atmosphere that made our celebrations magical. However, the guesthouse had some dustiness upon arrival, and lacking a bathroom was slightly inconvenient. A quick pre-guest cleaning and considering bathroom facilities would enhance the stay. Considering our party of ten, a few more bath towels would have elevated comfort. Each guest having two towels would be wonderful. Lastly, the sliding doors in the main house were a bit tricky, causing some amusing struggles. This could be improved for future guests. Despite these tiny hiccups, our stay was captivating. I'd rate the property a 9/10 for its beauty and ambiance. With minor adjustments, it could easily be perfect. I'd gladly return and recommend it to anyone seeking an enchanting escape.

It was perfect. Beds were very comfy and lots of room for everyone. The pool and bbq area were exactly what we were hoping for. The proprty feels secluded and allowed us to relax and enjoy ourselves. Was also close to grocery stores and restaurants. The gift basket was a wonderful touch with a nice bottle of wine. We will be back!

Loved This Oasis!
Such a wonderful stay at this property. The host was very helpful and responsive. The home and grounds were beautiful. If you're going during cooler temps, just note there is a $125 pool heating fee. Also, we thought the twin-bed room had two beds, but it's only one (unless we missed a trundle). Regardless, it was a wonderful stay and would HIGHLY recommend!
