The house was great overall. Very comfy, great location. The pink bathroom may need a little attention as those tiles arenโ€™t going to stay on the wall much longer. Despite that, we would book again when visiting family again.

If you're looking for a cozy home in a quiet area, look no further. There are some restaurants and stores around, and the city and nightlife is not too far of a drive. Book this home for your family and enjoy some quality time on your next vacation!!

Our trip was lovely and staying in this home make it even better. The inside was clean, well kept and stocked with items that are thoughtful to a travelers needs. The house is laid out well. The beds were comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet. There was plenty of parking and the outdoor sitting area was perfect for those who wanted to enjoy the outdoors. My elderly parents were able to get in and out of the house easily and enjoyed the bedroom with the bath. We would definately rent here again if visiting the area.
