The house worked for us but a few things would have been nice to know ahead of time. We traveled with a 1 year old and 4 month old. There was no gate or door to block the steep staircase to the basement, we improvised and used a pack-n-play to block while the 1 year old was upstairs. Had to buy batteries for a remote, toilet paper, and paper towels for our stay. Not a big deal but feel those items could have been provided for a group of 10 people staying 5 days. Not the newest house on the block but for the price it was absolutely cozy, comfy, and made for a great time for our adult children and grandkids. We would stay here again!
