Our stay at the Estate at Fly Creek was our tenth consecutive family vacation (skipped last year due to COVID). There are 20 of us – my wife and me, 7 adult children and spouses and 11 grandchildren ages 18 to 7 (no 2 the same age) and a 20 month-old. All of our vacations have been wonderful, but this year was the best ever by far!
This house and property are fantastic. All amenities are exactly as described, if not better. The en suite bedrooms, 2 kitchens, indoor pool, gathering areas, adjacent equestrian facility, lake and tennis/basketball court were enjoyed by all. Everything was very conducive to all ages and each age group had special areas of enjoyment. There was horse back riding, an alpaca visit, lake activities, swimming at all hours in the indoor pool and, most important of all, numerous opportunities for family bonding.
The lay out of the common areas in the house was very conducive to spontaneous conversation among any combination of our family members you can imagine. All of our vacations have been primarily about family bonding. Consequently, our family members are not only related, but are friends. Because of COVID, this was our youngest granddaughter’s first opportunity to rub elbows with everyone at the same time and she (and everyone else) loved it.
My wife and I found that the instances of meaningful conversation between the adults and older children were much more numerous during this vacation. Because of the past 18 months, we’re sure there are numerous contributing factors. However, we are convinced this house was the major contributing factor.
Thank you, Kelly Hart, for a great stay. We highly recommend Estate at Fly Creek!
