This pristine five-bedroom vacation home exceeded our expectations. It offers so many thoughtful extras, including a coffee bar with coffee, filters, and creamers, a fully stocked kitchen, and plenty of towels for the pool area. The home was tastefully decorated, exceptionally clean, and comfortably accommodated our family of 10 with plenty of room to spare.Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish, and everything went smoothly. We had no issues whatsoever. This is a wonderful home for larger families, and we would definitely stay here again.

I’ve rented this house once a year for the past few years with about 8 other people and I cannot recommend it More. The hosts are amazing, house is great so is the area it’s located. The bedrooms are comfortable and cozy. The pool is a great size especially for the amount of people at the house can hold. There’s a lot of small touches that make it feel better than your normal like Airbnb adjacent experience.

My wife, our kids and their families all met for a few days in the Albany area. The house was perfect. Relaxing, casual setting. Room to spread out. The kids loved the pool and theater room. S’mores in the fire pit. We all enjoyed the views and the deer walking through the backyard. Including a mom and her two fawns. Jessica and Erik were great hosts, providing a welcome gift of local wines and coffee, as well as the S’mores supplies.
