Family Reunion

JMU girl Alexandria, VA
Review Submitted: July 31, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We enjoyed a mini-family reunion at this beautiful home. The first floor bedroom was perfect for those wanting to avoid stairs. The house was amazing - bright and airy - crisp and clean with everything we needed and then some . . . truely made our family time together very special. I think everyone will remember this trip for years to come.
The owners are wonderful - even mailed an item we left at the house back to us - now that is hospitality!
Thank you!
