elegant two-story home in a resort-style community

MarjorieRating, 5 stars26 months ago

Beautiful neighborhood. Many walkable trails and parks with access to the Bay Trail. House is large and comfortable (great beds) and spotlessly clean. Large private backyard and very close to the tennis/pickle ball courts and pool. Only complaint is that the kitchen was not well stocked for our two week stay. We needed to borrow cooking implements and equipment from our son who lives in the area. But overall, a wonderful property and would not hesitate to return.

The indoor pool is enclosed within a dome structure, featuring clear water reflecting soft light. Textured walls and a spacious pool deck provide ample room for movement. A wooden bench is positioned along one side, enhancing the tranquil environment.

This was the perfect place for us to visit with our three adult children, since there was plenty of space for everyone.

Large attractive, outdoor space and plenty of privacy. Alli was a great host and extremely responsive when an issue came up.
