The property was great for our sorority reunion, but the communication with the property manager was lack luster which caused confusion on how to get in the house.
The gas fireplaces weren't turned on, gas grill had empty tank, lighting instructions was a bit confusing, etc.
But the accomodations were great. Just need to get more on top of communications from the manager.
