Contact us for more info on details and pricing. We have service for 8 with dishware. If you need more for your special dinner or occasion, let us know ahead, and we can accommodate. The dining table seats 8 with the leaf. There are extra chairs in the garage, as well as a couple of fold-up tables. The deck table seats 8. Keep in mind, the house does only sleep 8, but feel free to invite extra folks for a meal or gatherings if they are staying in the area. We do have 1 year-round neighbor, so as long as you are considerate regarding the noise, and manage to fit everyone in the driveway, enjoy!
