Amazing views and very well equipped unit. The owner thought of everything from dog biscuits for the dog to extra toothbrushes in case you forgot one. I would give top ratings.

Thank you for allowing us to rent your space. It was absolutely beautiful. The view from the balcony is amazing. The location was excellent for our trip to Land of Oz. The location was also great for restaurants. The space was so clean and inviting. The big king bed was so comfortable. Our furry babies loved their stay also, and enjoyed playing with the doggy toys provided. I would highly recommend and we plan to visit again!

Loved location, we were able to view fireworks from front deck. Unit is well equipped, clean and extremely comfortable. Had the once in a lifetime experience of watching 2 bear cubs climb the tree that is about 10ft from the back deck. Mom was below sleeping with a third cub! Great pics.
