We had such a lovely stay. The place was quaint, cozy, and beautifully maintained. The room had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and it felt welcoming from the moment we arrived.The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The neighborhood was nice and quiet — perfect for relaxing after a long day.We stayed only one night while my daughter was competing in gymnastics at WEC, and it was the perfect spot for us. We would definitely stay here again!

We absolutely loved this spot! It was cheaper than a hotel and 10x better. The hosts were kind, friendly, and generous. They were very available while also respecting privacy well. The site was orderly, clean and set up for multiple outdoor activities (grilling/bocce ball/stargazing) as well as some DVD classics to watch. Also it seemed like newer construction which is a bonus. Personally, I think this is my favorite rental I've ever had (on any platform). If we find ourselves in the area again, we'll definitely stay. Highly recommend!
