The bedroom on the main floor is the coolest room in the summer. The showers have filters as we have well water. We provide a water cooler and 5 gallons of purified drinking water for your stay. Our water has been tested multiple times and is safe to drink and cook with. If you choose to use the futon, it will need to be move a bit away from the wall so it is able to go down into a bed. When you are in front of the futon, you will lift the frame up and the back will go down and you will hear two clicks. Once you hear the two clicks, you can set the frame back down.

ND Football Game Weekend
I was in town with a group of buddies. The place was great for our group. Unfortunately the weather didn't allow us to spend much time in the yard, but the house itself offered plenty of space. The basement provided room to hang out, play pool and watch a game and the hot tub felt really good after being out in the cold/wet all day. I'll definitely check on the availability of this place when I'm back in the area.
