Two Estates w/ Pools, Hot Tub, Game Rooms, Views & Tennis Court Near Wineries

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful area and house. The house was a little older than I thought but still great to stay in. Plenty of rooms and space. Did not get to try the pool but the basketball/tennis court was great to have. The small towns nearby were great and had everything we needed in terms of eating and supplies. Best part was communication with staff. Leading up to stay there was plentiful communication and the concierge service was a great tool to have with set up and getting extra air mattresses for our stay.Check in was great as well; Kim was there and walked us through everything. Response time was excellent. There was an issue with water pressure that happened late in the evening but her response was quick and someone was there to check it out early in the morning which we appreciated.Was one of the better trip experiences because of the staff and quick communication between all involved. Lessened the stress of preparation and allowed me to focus on planning the trip without worrying about last minute surprises at the property. "
