Summary: All of our group agreed that this was by the far the best large group accomodation we have rented. We have stayed in some really nice ones, but enjoyed the Hatch even more. None of us fish, so it was all about spending time together. There were sufficient walking trails, which required little to no driving, to get some exercise close to the house. There was plenty of room to spread out. The beds were quite comfortable, and the AC was more than sufficient in 90 degree weather. Showers were plenty hot and great water pressure. We couldn't believe how stocked the Hatch was with all the necessities. The fire pit area was wonderful, even though the weather kept us from enjoying it that much. The grill was top notch as was the main floor kitchen stove.Our only regret was that we didn't plan to stay more days than we did. Highly recommend the Hatch for your next big group outing.
