"Location was fantastic for where our event was! Great area to walk around. Sno cone/ ice cream/corn hole place right up the street! Gas station, resturant, gym all within walking distance!My only complaint is that I thought some newer, cleaner rugs could have been placed around the house. the barstools were very uncomfortable to sit on, which someone had to use because there really wasn't alot of seating for 5 adults. We all took turns and made it work.!Great outdoor fenced in yard for my dog, which was perfect! All in all, this place was great for what we needed! Thank you, Dawn!"
