    Beautiful view and a very nice home!
    Holiday Nelson
  • Our stay here was phenomenal. The house is stunning, on the inside and out, it was decorated so beautifully. Everything you could ever need was stocked inside. Everything was immaculately clean! The views were to die for! We couldn’t believe that we were staying in such a beautiful place with the most amazing views. We loved how the house opens up to an indoor/outdoor space. We had so much fun playing on the trampoline and using the hot tub. We loved having dinners outside under the lights. There were so many toys and games that my two boys had the best time ever. We wish we could have stayed much longer. All the amenities you could ever think of. You have to stay here! It’s incredible! Thank you so much for the wonderful stay! We also loved walking on the path down to founders park for food and fun. Just perfection! Thank you for the most lovely stay. It was the dreamiest stay!
