Summary: This place definitely has the “wow” factor that we were looking for to celebrate our daughter’s graduation! Huge, beautiful house and pool with lots of yard games. A couple notes for parents of smaller kids ..- the deep part of the pool is around 8’ and the slide going into that part is a “high thrill” which ends about 2’ above the water. - about half the pool is 4’ or less- the floors are marble and slippery when wet and there are a number of places in the house with 3-4 step stairs (our 5 yr old fell down the steps in one spot)- the master bedroom suite is AMAZING and also on the opposite side of the house from the rest of the bedrooms (for better or worse, depending if you want to be close to your kids). There is a twin size bed, crib, and pack & play available in the master suite in addition to the queen size bed. Overall we really enjoyed our stay including playing foosball, ping pong, pool, basketball, and golf.
