Summary: The home was very spacious, perfect for our family. Plenty of room and the kitchen was well stocked. The only complaint was the grill did not work and SO many burned out lightbulbs, the upstairs family room area is dark because there is only 1 small lamp. The ceiling fan and lights do not work in the second floor. Will definitely go back, our kids requested it for next Labor Day as well!
