Review Score:   10
Summary: The house was better than we expected. Very clean and inviting. It slept 9 of us perfectly with plenty of room. We really appreciated the games and things in and out of the house to fill some time. My only cons are the location (very bad service and far from pretty much anything) and the slow wifi, the latter of which can easily be improved. I would stay again.
