The venue is beautiful, and the perfect place for a small get together with friends and to take pictures. That said, the check-in instructions were unclear and incomplete and I arrived at the house a few minutes after checkin time to meet the host who wasn’t home. The house is beautiful, so are the grounds, but there were dead bugs and personal laundry items scattered around. I wish there were a couch inside the living room as the seating situation is quite uncomfortable; I could nitpick but overall the stay was good and the event went well!
