Our group enjoyed our stay at this property. With ample amount of beds, and plenty of room for our group to spread out, it fit our needs for the weekend well. We used the barn/gym frequently to play a variety of sports and games.

Perfect spot for an active 3 generation family holiday!
Our family tries to get together at least once each year, normally around the Christmas holiday. We (2 grandparents, 8 children and spouses, and 15 grandchildren ages 7 to 30) came to this Ft Recovery gem from Ohio, Illinois, New York, Los Angeles and Virginia. The main floor open kitchen, living room and eating spaces, game area in the lower floor, and fantastic adjacent building with full basketball/volleyball court and loft with wet bar allowed us to spread out and spend time in small groups (as we like to do) throughout our stay.In addition to lots of good food and games, we managed to work in a fine wine tasting by our son-in-law sommelier, line dancing in the gym led by a granddaughter, and a basketball challenge to game of PIG by the 78 year old grandfather to a 23 year old grandson; final result: GS PIGGY, GF PI.We already booked our next visit for December 2025.

Fall Family Break
This property was all we were hoping it would be. This Fall gave us dry, sunny weather all except the days we were here!! BUT that didn't matter because of the many activities offered here. We had an all family pickle ball tournament, a paper airplane contest, the boys played basketball. There was plenty of room for games, pool, puzzles and more. The kids used the pool (too cold for adults), but everyone used the hot tub! When it was nice out the kids hiked and played in the leaves. The space inside was perfect for our group. We had a wonderful time. Thank you so much!!

Excellent retreat location
From the moment I found this place online through our stay all the way up into our departure. This property did not disappoint so much to do in so much room. The basketball court is an awesome addition and can also be used for dodgeball and volleyball. Lots of things to do for activities. We were overwhelmed by how much there was to do at the house and all of the amenities. Actually, can’t wait to come down here again looking to do a friends and family getaway there! A+ Rating!

Good time had by all.
I’m glad I am a carpenter. Because I had to adjust about all the bifold doors because they wouldn’t open or close very well because of new carpeting. if I wouldn’t have done that, they probably would have been ruined by the end of the stay. Also took a little plastic tack off of the bottom of the door, going into the bedroom on the first floor. It was making an arc on the carpeting which would have worn the carpeting real fast.week Also fixed one of the porch 45° angle.

Perfect small town getaway!
We loved the location and setting of this property. The town is wonderful with a few restaurants and great parks! The home itself had a wonderful layout with plenty of comfortable beds, lounge spaces and eating/seating. We loved the variety of activities, especially the pool, pickle ball, basketball and ping pong table. The large island in the kitchen made feeding 11 grandchildren easier! :) The pool was heated 🙌 it was very private and beautiful. We had 21 people and no one felt cramped all week. We loved the 3(!) washers and dryers but the dryers took several cycles to actually dry. The pool was a bit dirty upon arrival but the host came and cleaned/shocked it and it was fine. Overall we loved it and would love to come back again!

Amazing getaway
We had an amazing 2 days getaway with our friends and family! Our almost 5 hour drive to this like in a fairytale house location was so worth it. Very quite place, mesmerizing view from the balcony and relaxing beach style feeling from the pool. The house was clean and comfortable with all the amenities you need to make your stay feel lime home. Adults enjoyed the pool, but the cherry on the top was the huge, modern gym, were kids were having a blast! Actually an amazing addition along with all the other amenities the house provided. Would definitely recommand this owners and the house to anyone who is looking for a top vacation with a twist of home comfy feeling!
