Summary: My family and I were in awe of the beauty and care of this historic home. All the comforts of modern day but still keeping the history of the home intact. You can see the love of the property these homeowners possess and want to ensure you love it as much as they do. Lots of water activities for the kids but also a pedal boat that my 86 yr old Grandma could get in to enjoy the water. The host was great with communication in all areas. Would go back in a heartbeatโ€ฆ.
