Great House for a Large Group!
Built in the 1890’s the woodwork is amazing. We enjoyed the ping pong table on the third floor but to get to one of the bedrooms you had to walk through another one. Plus, the bathroom on that floor was a half bath making it a chore to take a shower which were all on the second floor. The kitchen has all new appliances and two refrigerators. Plenty of space to dine. The group that takes care of it for the owners were very good in helping us to fix a few issues sending a guy right over. All in all a good house (wifi & 3 TVs) for a big group, but don’t expect perfection
Just enjoy and have fun!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
