The house was in a perfect location. Loved having a fenced yard for my dog to roam. The bed was comfortable as was the sofas. I asked to extend my stay and they took care of everything. Having separate sitting areas would be great for larger families or groups.

We really liked this house and the location! The host was very responsive and helpful before, during, and after our stay. We had a minor issue with a backed up drain that they quickly resolved and they also promptly sent me back things we accidentally left behind. It was clean and comfortable. Loved the fenced in yard and gas grill. We already booked again for next year!
