Review Score:   6
Summary: Huge house with plenty of room to spread out! Was drawn to this house because of the ability to accommodate 5 couples comfortably. Weather was cold and rainy making the Large family room off the kitchen a popular spot to hang out. We were disappointed that the fireplace in the main room was not working. The outdoor sauna in the listing title is a unique feature we had looked forward to enjoying on our winter getaway but it too was not working and therefore unavailable to us. The hot tub however was in good working order and clean! This house is good for a very large group offering many private areas and quiet spaces to read or watch a movie, play games or nap! Renters should be aware there are Many sets of stairs to the various levels some without hand railings… All in all a good stay but extremely pricey at nearly 2,000.00 a night after taxes and fees.
