Very nice home
We stayed at this home for a family gathering and it was perfect. The parent adults could be upstairs visiting and the college age adults could be in the basement. We had 12 people over 18 yrs old in the house and we had plenty of room to spread out.

Exceptional place to stay
We enjoyed our stay and were blown away by the cleanliness and all it had to offer. Lots of towels, extra blankets/pillows, fully equipped kitchen and also had folding table and chairs for extra seating which was a huge bonus for our large family! One of the best rental houses we have ever stayed at! Easily located and only a couple minute drive from the lost island waterpark! Hands down one of the best rentals properties we have ever stayed at.

Weekend getaway
This is a very nice property. The home was clean and well staged. There is a nice deck overlooking a green space and pond. We were ables to sit outside and relax or congregate in one of two community spaces. The host was responsive and welcoming. I highly recommend this property for UNI families visiting their students.

Perfect house for kids!
We've stayed here twice now and we absolutely love it. The lower level is perfect for kids to play and keeps the noise away from the adults upstairs. The pond in the backyard is great for fishing (we caught a few dozen) and the nearby water park is a hidden gem. It easily fit our 3 families with plenty of breathing room. We will definitely be returning!
