This is a magical property - we loved it, and our kids were fascinated by it! We were there in the off season and it was windy and cold outside. In the weather, the hot tub could not quite warm up and the patio was a bit chilly. As such, we weren't able to take advantage of it. However, we can imagine the patio area being perfect if it was a bit warmer outside! The space was very clean, and the extra amenities (coffee, breakfast) were very appreciated! Mike was very helpful, met us late when we arrived, saw us off early, and tried his hardest to warm up the hot tub for our kids - great personal touch!
