Two words: Stay here. ... No, seriously, whatever your other options might be, just forget them, and stay here! You will not be disappointed! ... Sarah is the consummate host: Quick with communication, concerned about the quality of your stay, provides thoughtful touches and amenities, leaves a manual for the site that contains all the information you will ever need to know about your stay and what's around you. Simply put: She's a pro's pro!
We had a group of eight in our party that ranged from grandparent to parents to adult children and to teenagers. And everyone of us was thrilled with Sarah's place. There were so many bedrooms, no one had to pile on top of each other, something our teenagers really appreciated! ... And there were gathering spaces all over the house so that we could all enjoy different entertainment when we wanted. Some watched football while others watched a movie. And others played games while some of sat around a campfire. (Note: We did not have young children with us but looking at all of the toys, games and electronic devices available, I wouldn't hesitate to bring young children either.)
Our family made use of the family rooms, the three-season porch and the outdoor area built for campfires. And every space was more than we could have hoped for!
Note: My personal favorite was the unique and ample coffee bar!!! You have got to see this perk!!! Seriously!
If you want the option of cooking, you won't be disappointed either. The kitchen contains great appliances, and the dining room accommodated our family of eight easily!
I also cannot say enough about Sarah's communication. Right from the beginning of the reservation process, Sarah was quick to respond to every message, and even put up with several messages late into the evening!
Finally, I cannot state the value of the stay is unmatched. There is no way I could have reserved enough hotel rooms to accommodate our entire family, and still had access to all of the amenities provided at Sarah's house. There is no other option that will give you the same value!
I really can't stress enough that by this point, if you are still considering another option for your stay, then you are just wrong! ;-) Stay at Sarah's house!
