the house itself was amazing. smaller than i thought it would be, based on the photos, but still so special, and the way it was situated on the property was perfection. those views, and so quiet! i will say, however, a few umbrellas around the pool would solve the two issues we had with the place: the first being that the bedrooms face east, so even with the blackout shades down, those rooms get bright and HOT by 8am, even with the AC running. secondly, had to pull the children out of the pool a few times to get them into some shade on the other side of the house. seems like a couple of sails could remedy both of those easily...
