Slide down the waterfall right outside your bedroom. Have bonfires on the island surrounded by a rushing stream. Swim in the natural 14ft-deep granite pool.

Summary: This was a fantastic home! Lots of room to spread out and the backyard entertainment was indescribable! Just as an advisory for older folks or people with mobility issues - there are lots of stairs. The house was very clean. Joe the owner was so accessible. He was fantastic. We are booked to stay here again, we loved it so much!
