Summary: House was nice and big. Advertised that it sleeps 10 but no room for more than 8.Not enough dishes to feed 10 either. Back door would no stay closed. Septic tanks in the yard smelled really bad each day.Bbq was completely unusable. We had to strip it down amd clean it ourselves in order to use it.Def not a few mins from GB. More like 20 mins.Not all windows were coverdd so super bright in most rooms come morning. Other than that it was a fun nice environment to spend some time. Games room in garage was fun to have.
