hell yea, this place was awesome. I was here in june for a friends engagement party and they rented this house for the weekend. When I first drove up, the first thing that caught my eye was the neat driveway that wrapped around a garden, it even had this cool seahorse bird bath. My girlfriend and I stayed upstairs and were blown away by all of the artistic touches that the owners have put into the house. Normally I would never talk about how great a bathroom is, but every single bathroom in this house had its own distinct and creative tiling patterns. While one had a stand-up shower with an awesome broken-tile design, another had a bath with a huge sea turtle on the wall made completely of tile...truly beautiful. Even the downstairs bathroom had a huge walk in rock shower made of large, smooth stones...I seriously thought we could fit half of the guests in there at once. I now consider myself somewhat of a bathroom officianado. Both the upstairs and downstairs have a large, spacious common area that worked great for the party atmosphere, but later as the party settled down, the space easily transitioned into a cozy, intimate space to drink and have conversation. I'm a country boy at heart so my opinion might be a bit biased, but my favorite thing about this entire house was the Recreation room. This thing had all the bells and whistles, I'm talking about huge television, pool table, dart board,a long rock bar, and of course the golden egg of this room was the keggerator filled with icy-cold beer. After having a few shots of tequila at the bar and few cold brews, I headed out to join the festivities of the party. The yard is gigantic and the houses have an amazing view of the lake from the decks. Then night came and thats when the yardlights came on and illuminated everything so that the party could keep going, and the tequila kept flowing until we took a late night dip in the lake. Overall, this house made a lasting impression on me, my girlfriend, and almost everyone that attended the engagement party. Only advice I can give is if you drink too much tequila and go swimmin, watch out for snapping turtles...just kidding one of the best nights ever. I take my hat off to the owners for creating such a beautiful place.
