Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Listing accuracy
The Roost property is situated on a beautiful and private location surrounded by woods, nice landscaping. The home interior is nice and quiet. My only suggestion would be an of upgrade of the kitchen pots, pans and simple spices. Overall it’s a nice home.
