Stayed for the second time in less than a year...just as good as we remembered

Property was very well appointed with great instructions / communication from the property manager. A 100 year old home, but very well laid out and plenty of room for everyone. Good location and very secure. Hope to stay again!

Out only issue was the when we set the thermostat to 70 degrees, it would go back down to 63 or cooler. We kept having to reset it because it would get really cold!
