"We had a great time! The property was beautiful and exactly what we ended up needing. While we were in 2 of the units and had 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms it was a little odd that the bathrooms were inside the bedrooms. It did make it awkward for late night/early morning bathroom time….Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy more of the house! "
