WOW! It's obvious that the owners care about their guests, and pay close attention to detail. This is seriously heaven on earth.
Upon arrival, all the kids spread out to discover the delights of the house. We heard echos of "oh my GOSH!" and "NO WAY" for several minutes! This place is truly made for large families. The layout of the house is genius, with a door to the "bedroom" section of the house to keep out the noise. All the fun stuff (the loft and basement) are on the opposite side.
The kid rooms were incredible. Lots of little "Harry Potter closets" for kids to play in, with toys and board games and just about everything you could wish for. The teens played pool, ping pong, and poker for hours. I will say there were a lot of rated R movies; we simply took away the remotes to avoid younger kids sneaking one.
The bedrooms were tastefully decorated (the artwork is out of this world throughout the house!) and the mattresses extremely comfortable. I appreciated the ample closet space and shelving as well.
The kitchen was well stocked - lots of dishes, various sizes of pots and pans, large skillets, a crockpot, etc. Huge, empty pantry, and lots of empty cupboards to put everyone's stuff away. The fridge/freezer is HUGE, plus there are two more refrigerators in the garage. (Side note, the garage is quite accommodating; it fit both our Nissan NV and my in-law's Ford Transit.)
And the outdoors were even better! We especially loved the walking trail and gaga ball pit!
