Quagmire of double booking apparently caused by owner of primary property. Local host did provide an alternative… But was not in the location convenient for the family plus it was located in the middle of a citywide marathon.Vrbo service should have prevented this double booking.

The House itself is super cool, Everything a home should be. Lots of character and very accomidating ammenites. Style for days!!! Back yard and porch area are perfect for everything from morning cafecito to late night hangs with friends. The parking could be better, driveway approach is steep! But I think it's a fair trade off for the multi level coolness of the house. It's defenitly on our list of Favs!!
