This was a very comfortable home for our group of 5 adults, a toddler and 2 pups. We managed to park 3 large vehicles inside the secure gate. Nice fenced yard to accommodate those traveling with pups.This is hands down the absolute cleanest rental I have ever encountered and we travel a lot. The home is nicely decorated, the bedding is nice and furniture is comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Overall we really enjoyed and will come again if we have the need. Many thanks to the host for Sharing their home.

Enjoyed my stay very much. House was new and very clean. Location was close to amenities such as Whole Foods and coffee shops. I had a situation where I had to extend my stay 1 extra night and the host was gracious to find a way to make it happen. Highly recommend

Great stay

Check in was smooth for our first time using VRBO. House was clean and comfortable. Was nice to be able to cook most of our meals instead of eating in restaurants everyday. House was very accessible and easy to find. Also, communication with the property manager was excellent.
