Beautiful!

We had the best time - everyone together. Hotels get everyone too scattered out. This was perfect!

Great home but could be cleaner

Lovely location, cute decorations, and very spacious! The communication with the property manager was quick, efficient, and very proactive. The house could have been cleaner- we saw multiple live roaches and evidence of rodent activity in the kitchen.
