Summary: The property was amazing. Views were inspiring. We arrived with a rather large rental van, which made the drive in to the house a tight one, but Kim gave us great instructions and we made it with no issues. Very comfortable for a multi-family stay with room to gather or spread out as we wished. room to soread out, or gather
