All 5 of us loved this property! It is spacious, modern, and has a great kitchen. We really liked that each bedroom had its own bath. The master bedroom has access to a great deck. All of us could go through the living area to sit out on the large deck.The kitchen is well equipped and the host provided coffee. What more could you want in a VRBO?!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Susan, our host was very accommodating. We were able to check in early, which was very helpful. The place was clean and had everything we needed. Also, the location was a vey nice neighborhood. Safe and within walking distance of a lot of shopping and restaurants. Great value for the money!

We loved sitting out on the back deck, listening to the birds & enjoying the scenery. I think what sets this house apart is the attention to detail. I was an architectural draftsman in my past and truly admired the careful design details in this Craftsman home.The beds were so comfortable I am thinking of replacing my own mattress when we returned home.All in all, it was a great vacation stay.
