The Pool House was a lovely place to stay and truly felt like a home away from home. It had everything we needed, and we especially loved having our own private pool on the property. Jan was very responsive to all of our questions, and we would highly recommend the Pool House to any couple looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway.

The Pool House is an excellent property with all we needed for a quiet getaway. We spent a lot of time in the great pool and the Pool House has all the creature comforts we expected and appreciated. It has been well thought out to cater to visitors’ needs. The air conditioning was particularly welcome during a hot week. We felt at home away from home!
