Property very nice and owner very helpful. However the television was impossible to run. Limited stations and streaming was next to impossible.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Sept 2025
From the owner: "Thank you for your kind words about the property and our hospitality. We’re sorry to hear the television setup caused frustration during your stay.The TV uses an Amazon Fire Stick for streaming, which can be tricky if you’re not familiar with the system. Guests who use similar devices at home have had success, but we understand it can be confusing, especially without in-person assistance. We truly regret the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll look into ways to make the setup easier for future guests."
