The house was cute, clean, and well-maintained. The host was very responsive, and we really appreciated the option for an early check-in. We especially enjoyed watching the swans, cranes, birds, and boats from the windows. The bed was comfortable, ACs were very effective, and the hot water and water pressure were consistently great, which is always a plus.A few things future guests or hosts may want to know: blackout curtains, especially in the kids’ bunk room, would be a nice addition. Also, because the home is near the water, mosquitoes were very active during our July stay. We appreciated that the property is sprayed weekly, but we still found bug spray to be essential, even for the short walk to and from the car.Our biggest concern was the surrounding area. While we never had any direct issues & no one bothered us during our stay, we personally felt uneasy driving through the neighborhoods & seeing multiple police interactions nearby during our visit, along w/ some visible loitering. Everyone’s comfort level is different, but it affected our experience enough that it was a factor in that we decided to leave a day early. Host may want to consider additional curtains for lower level privacy at night and possibly a temporary code on existing security system. Overall, the home matched the listing & the host was communicative. I share some details on our experience to help the host & future guests have realistic expectations & make the best decision for their own needs.
