Great location for the activity we were in town for--the kite festival on the lake. We were only a block away. House had the essentials for cooking. We had two toddlers with us, and they enjoyed the ottoman filled with games and activities to keep busy. The stairs to the upper level sleeping area are very steep; but there are two rooms on the main floor for those needed to avoid steps. There is a door to shut to prevent the littles from going up the stairs-so that was nice.
