We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and equiped with everything you needed. Check in and out process was perfect and it was great not being right on the main road. The only issue was the TV in the living room kept turning on and off by itself. We weren't able to watch anything for any length of time.

If respite from noise and city traffic is what moves you, this is the place to find it. We loved our break from the hustle and bustle of our hometown; kitchen was easy to cook in, the beds were comfortable, TV was fab, outdoor area was beautiful and our host (Selena) couldn't have been more easy to reach/responsive. 5 stars!

Very nice property

We stayed for a quick, quiet birthday getaway. The property was exactly as listed and extremely clean. The house was decorated for Christmas which made it so much more cozy. The communication with the property manager was smooth and very prompt. We will definitely be back for another stay this fall.
