While the photos and profile on VRBO were exciting enough for us to make reservations, three of our party asked to visit the property a month ahead of our reservations and got a very gracious tour by John. They came back saying it was better than the everything shown and described on VRBO. There were thirteen in our party, ranging from 3months to great grandmother. All had a fantastic time. The group got a tour of the 1200-acre property and saw some amazing animals on the way to the shooting range. The pond near the main house had lots of aggressive bass, caught the first one on the second cast, large catfish, and some huge finnicky stripers. The Golf simulator was a favorite before and after meals and tournaments late into the evening with spectator seating. The house is on the top of rolling hills. We went at the end of July (95-100 degrees) but with the breeze coming into the compound and the low humidity the temperature didn’t impact our activities. The pool temperature was perfect, the slight breeze made getting out of the pool refreshing (almost cold). Plenty of shaded seating while still being part of the pool activities. One of the guests cooked a pork tenderloin to perfection using the properties smoker by the house. Having complete run of the house and tank area for fishing, leaving fishing gear down by the pond for anyone to fish at all hours of the day or night. I confess we did bring two electric bikes so we didn’t get as much exercise as we would have otherwise, but it made getting down to the pond for a quick hook-up with a bass or catfish memorable. Everything about the property was first class. At night with the lights off the stars were amazing, we could have slept outside it was that comfortable and bug free. Great family experience.
