Our family and friends had a wonderful weekend celebration! This venue was perfect for our outdoor garden party! Our 3 kids, spouses, and grandchildren were able to reunite under a single roof, to escape from memories of our lost year, as well as invite extended family and friends to join us for a multi-generational party with lawn and pool games, food, and fun. The pool area was perfect, and well stocked with floats and toys. The patio, deck, and 4 separate lawn areas, provided ample space for our 50+ guests to spread out and spend the day with us.
Though the property is exquisite, the home itself, and the furnishings within are old and tired and in need of some repairs and replacements. The kitchen was surprisingly tiny, and it was challenging to feed 8 adults and 4 kids, when we were all there, but thankfully we only had a full house for 3 of the days! We made it work! Cabinets were well stocked with dishes, glassware, pots, cleaning supplies, etc, but a bit dis-organized. Also a bit frustrating was that the "linens provided" were waiting in a big bag on the front steps, and we had to make all the beds up ourselves.
All-in-all, ignoring the few disappointments, we had a perfect week of family bonding.
