Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All the units I have stayed in with this property management have been very clean. This unit was as well but it needs some updating. The carpet in the bedrooms are badly stained and the mattress had the impression of my body after the first night and I am not overweight. The kitchen had all that was needed for cooking.
