Family Reunion
Booked this house for a family reunion. Advertised to sleep 18, it had adequate bed space, dining space and dishes for 18. Weather was very warm, air conditioning was working well, kept us comfortably cool. Parking was adequate, on the driveway and on the street. The playground/park 3 doors away was wonderful for the Grandkids. The house sits on a mildly busy street, at the top of a steep hill, so we denied the kids’ bikes or scooters out of caution. Charcoal grill, we left excess charcoal on the premises. Dishwasher did not work. I alerted the property manager who admitted that it hadn’t worked for the last renters either. Nothing was done to remedy that. 4 slice toaster, only worked on L half. Nothing done to remedy that, despite alerting property manager. Garage with 2 large holes in the ceiling. Lots of junk stored in garage. Overall it was a lovely family weekend, yet the accommodations were disappointing as the property manager didn’t answer my request to remedy the dishwasher situation. 3 stars. Won’t stay here again .

We love the Friendship Fortress
Amazing spot for a big group. House is enormous with more than enough space - solid location with a lot of shops and restaurants around. Would definitely recommend!

Very responsive hosts. Kitchen was dated and disorganized, but we did enjoy our time.

Amazing!!!
The friendship fortress was absolutely amazing! The house is beautiful and cozy for how large the home is. There was plenty of space and beds for our group of gals! There are plenty of little activities if you want to stay in the house. Would highly recommend. Will hopefully stay there again one day.

Reunion weekend success
We had 3 small families stay here. House was well stocked and decorated. The listing should mention a pull out couch in the downstairs LR and trundles in the bunk room. It didn't change much for our group but would have been good to know there were other sleeping options. The neighborhood initially looks a little suspect, but there were no issues with the area. It was well located close to everything. The house served us well as a home base for college reunion.

Upside: The house was large enough for our group. Beds were comfortable. They did have slow cooker, but too small, I purchased one and left there for next large group Downside: The outside furniture needs some repairs. I wish there were more family games. I only saw 1 Family Feud, that was fun. I purched a game at thrift store and left there. The dryer was not heating so we ender up going to laundromat to dry. Overall. We were happy with our stay.

Big enough for 3 families
Three families stayed at the house. We get together once a year and rent a house. There was plenty of room for the kids to play and the adults to socialize. The fences yard was also nice to have. The kitchen had necessary appliance and pans. We did miss some basic things like having pepper. Overall a few things could be worked on, but it was a great house to share with our friends.

New year vacation
It was a great experience in the house, we love the space, it is a big house, just for us, big group of family or friends. The house has a good location, near to restaurants and stores. The only thing to improve is to fix the heather, so the whole house specially in the bedrooms can be warm and cozy.
