Good to know
The backyard is an entertainment delight. Fire up the grill on the spacious deck, sway your day away on the balcony swings and deck hammock, or toast marshmallows around the firepit. Little ones will love the slackline playground, and you can challenge your friends to a game of horseshoes. Inside, whip up a feast in the fully equipped kitchen with double ovens that makes food prep a breeze, then kick back and enjoy movie night on the 70-inch smart TV—or one of the bedroom smart TVs if you’re craving some solo screen time. The home offers 3 bedrooms plus a bunk room (private and enclosed with a door) with 4 twin beds that is great for kids or overflow sleeping space. Families will find all the comforts of home, with a mini crib, Pack 'N play, high chairs, and plastic eatware ready for the little ones.
