Summary: We loved the hiking trails and the little creek/waterfall just off the property. Very lovely patio area in front of the house with gorgeous view of the hills. Kids loved exploring. We found the home to be large enough, though pots and pans/kitchen accessories like dishwasher need updating and difficult to use. We had difficulty using some rooms (downstairs area can only be accessed via a bedroom) though we were able to make it work. Of note, the road to the property is relatively twisty so those with motion sickness should be forewarned.
