The house is so perfect. All the amenities you need and a fire pit and hot tub. Decks to sit on and fencing for privacy. the location of the house and the maintenance of the house was perfect and immaculate. We had one issue and after a quick text, a handyman was there within a few hours. Bedding and furniture was so comfortable. Absolutely quiet at night and the morning. Only one minor drawback. The neighbors were always allowing their dog to run to our car and the dog also followed me down the street barking at me on a walk. No complaints about the house or the stay. Wonderful and relaxing.
