Is this ok for a public review:
We had a great weekend at the house. It is beautiful, in a great location and very spacious. The downstairs is very comfortable and accommodates a large group well.
If you are planning to rent this home with a large group, please be aware that you will need the following: oven mitts, baking sheets, paper plates, drinking cups, coffee mugs, and kitchen knives. There are a few of these items in the home, but not enough for 12. The grill is a small hibachi grill requiring briquettes.
The AC upstairs does not work, and although guest services is very accommodating and responsive, we were given the following information:
"Thank you for patiently holding. The update on the matter is AC does work and has been checked by multiple techs. The house is just very large and has a metal roof so the AC has trouble keeping up. Our best suggestion is to keep fans on and window blinds closed. Is there anything else I can do for you?"
Our trip was in late April, so outside temperatures were in the high 70s, but the air upstairs in the house was 82 in the evening. We just spent most of our time downstairs and several guests chose to sleep on the comfortable couch in the room by the kitchen, however, the motion sensitive lighting was a bit of a problem when trying to sleep in that room.
Despite the AC issues, we had a wonderful trip. The location is great, the property is beautiful and the house itself is gorgeous.
