Cute and Clean Place

The house was very clean and is located downtown of Etowah. The house is older, but nicely remodeled. A plus is the fenced in backyard for pets. Communication with the owner was very easy and prompt. No complaints here.

Perfect place to stay while visiting family!

To preface this: there was an issue with my check-in. The host was very accommodating and very kind during this issue. She went above and beyond what I expected. The house itself was lovely and I would be happy to stay there again! It makes visiting family so easy as I have a dog that is a little complicated to say the least.
