This house is a perfect location to everything Tallahassee. It was just a short drive to everything we wanted to do. The house was very comfortable for the 6 of us, and pup who stayed there. It's hard to pinpoint one thing that stood out because we enjoyed everything!! Would definitely request to return if in the area again! Thank you again Chris and Casey. You're awesome!
