Wow, this property is amazing. I was tasked with finding a place for my group of old military dudes guys trip. The guys could not believe it. In fact we are planning another trip at this same location in the near future. Plenty of space, and so much to do. Loved the tiki hut, and pool and hot tub. The media room was the star of the show, with its 85" TV and sound system plus pool table and game console. Thanks Jen Henry for sharing your beautiful home.

This place was amazing - we didn't want to leave. Everyone thanked me for finding it. It is truly an Oasis - the backyard and pool are stunning. We were a group of 12 staying there to attend the Patriots/Bucs game (and yes, Pats won!) and there was plenty of room for everyone. Our host Jen was amazing! She was very responsive to any questions/needs we had and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. I have already recommended the house to friends and would definitely go back.

Great return stay with thoughtful touches! We truly enjoyed our return stay and were grateful for how accommodating and flexible our host Jennifer was throughout our visit. It was special to come back and create new family memories in a place that already felt familiar and welcoming. As pet lovers, we specially appreciated the many dog-friendly details around the home-it was clear it was thoughtfully designed with pets in mind, which made our stay even more enjoyable.The property met our needs once again. There were a few housekeeping areas that could be improved, and it wad evident our host was already in the process of addressing them, which we appreciated! We will gladly return for a future stay
