The property has no frills at all. The best feature is the location. Shower doors off the runners water pressure poor. Bedroom Stool old and wobbly. I noticed someone had reviewed the property and said fridge was leaking.. it still is. We chose this property for the location and hot tub. The hot tub had no sterile chemicals to put in for healtRead moreh safety. THe tub area was unkempt and the summer house had doors that wouldnt close. So the room was full of leaves . The big bulky furniture make the room very small . Towels provided were very small Hide
