Great place for our family of 5! The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes and supplies. The temperature on the main and lower levels was very comfortable, but the master bedroom upstairs was much hotter. Every bedroom has fans and extra pillows and blankets, which is nice. The only negative aspect is that parking is a distance from the house so it’s a bit of a hike down and up steps for carrying luggage. But we would definitely stay again if we are in the area!

This place is so great! Exceptionally clean and comfortable. Renee was great to work with and we didn’t need a thing during our stay. Bed linens were great and the kitchen was so well-equipped with everything you’d need to cook. It was a such a nice touch to have high end coffee (and plenty of it) during our stay.

I absolutely adored this home. I can't say enough about the little extra touches that made a big difference. The extra cups and cookware, the extra and great towels, the little products provided in the bathrooms, the creamer in the fridge and the snacks...it was so sweet and made it such a wonderful safe.
