This is the cutest house! The interior of the house is very clean and well-kept and the yard and patio area are very nice and well maintained. The neighborhood is very quaint, well maintained and walking distance to downtown and brewery. The hosts are very helpful and respond very quickly. We traveled with another couple and the house is a perfect layout with bedrooms and bathrooms on opposite ends of the house for privacy. Although we didn't cook, the kitchen seemed very well stocked with anything you need, the bathrooms are well stocked with essentials, and the beds are very comfortable! We enjoyed watching the cardinals while having coffee outside on the patio in the morning and dominos in the dining area in the evening. We loved this little place and will visit again!
