Barbara was a very thoughtful host and great communicator! The house was very clean, smelled great, and was like home away from home. She really thought of everything- coffee for this tired mom and ice and cookies for my runner. The location was very scenic and our stay very quiet. Highly recommend!

Had a nice stay, property is as shown. Check in was easy and the Host checked in with me to see how everything was. Easy communication. Quiet neighborhood. Patio was wonderful to relax on. The firepit was all set up and ready to be lit, but I did not have a chance to use.
