Very clean and comfortable. No issues whatsoever with the house. Location was key, as it is walking distance to town and lakefront parks (watching the sunset was a highlight of the evening). Keep in mind the house is in a neighborhood which has its quirks (neighbors across the street had some interesting drama moments) which can take away from the "vacation vibe". Nice big backyard for the dog to roam with lots of other dog neighbors to bark with :) House is stocked with whatever you might need. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
