We came to visit our niece so it was mainly used for a place to sleep. The accommodations were perfect. We even had two deer in the backyard to make the stay more enjoyable. Everything was there we may need, towels, bedding, utensils etc. very clean and the host responded immediately. Also gave great suggestions on food and options to visit while there.
