House was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay! Questions were answered timely by the owner. We will stay again when we are in the area visiting our daughter.
John was a fantastic host and the property had everything we needed. We really felt at home. The house couldn’t have been any cleaner and it was located perfectly. We would definitely stay here again!
5⭐️’s all the way.

This property was located within walking distance of a grocery store and a coffee shop. Our family lived nearby so it was a trifecta!
