A great place. Tucked in a quiet neighborhood. Very cool Retro Motif.

The property itself is in good shape. Comfortable beds and Furniture. Easy to use Shower and Appliances. Thermostat was easy to use and air condition was in good working order. Landscaping could use a little attention to appear more occupied for security sake. Again a great stay!

Beautiful home and neighborhood

We loved the home and neighborhood. The house was beautifully decorated. However, kitchen supplies were a little bit of a challenge, i.e. three cookie sheets but only small pans. No grilling utensils that we could find, only small bowls. The yard needed maintenance.
