We are thankful for our stay. This was a convenient location for us, accepted our pets, and even had a small fenced area, and laundry. The house was clean and well kept with coffee pots, k cups, tea, spices and the cookware and utensils we needed too. Our family enjoyed spending time together over Easter there.
